I had one removed in 1999, and now I think I've got one in my other foot. I just wondered if anyone has any recent experience/tips etc - really don't fancy having the op. again because of the recovery time with toddler to look after. On the other hand, is it just going to get worse? I can't put my weight down on the affected foot, and have adapted to walking on the outside of my foot if that makes sense... which probably isn't good for me...
