Update

So where have I been?

A month ago, my doctor decided it was time for me to try custom orthotics. He took molds of my feet, then said it'd be about 3 weeks.

Today I was able to pick them up! I brought in my running shoes to the doctor's office and got them cut and fit to my shoes. I'm wearing them now. They feel a little weird, but that's normal for the first week or two. I have an appointment in another month to have any remaining pressure ares trimmed down, but already they feel pretty good. I'm going to let my feet get used to these for about a week, but then hopefully I'll be able to go for a run and see how I feel. Wish me luck!
