Still have repeated pain with right foot. Standing is hard on my foot. I try anything new I hear about. Probably need ultrasound procedures but since they are not covered under medical I've put it off.

I go out social dancing several nights each week, and I have experienced the pain of plantar fasciitis, where the simple act of extending my right foot to drive home, was very painful. I strongly recommend, that you get the boot to sleep with and wear around the house to help. It keeps you from pointing the foot while sleeping or when sitting. However, the cure can only be found in stretching the foot (the opposite direction of pointing the toe). I kneel on the matt while sitting on my toes and it hurts a lot, which means its exactly what is needed.
