Payne, did you buy new shoes or inserts or anything when it started? Start any new meds/antibiotics?

I would walk to work, less than 2 miles but by the end my legs would hurt and I was in my 20's so I went to the podiatrist and they made cookies ($100 which I could ill afford at that time) and away I want only over time it got so I was in pain, mostly my knee. Had to go to two orthopedists before one figured out it was the podiatrist's idiot, expensive inserts; they try to make your body "perfect" only your body isn't made that way (one leg is longer/shorter than another, one's hips are lopsided, any number of things!) and the perfect foot fix was throwing my knees out! Took another 3-4 weeks to get back to just "normal" hurting after walking a couple miles :-)

Don't get me started on Levaquin and what it did to my achilles tendon and my knee. . .

But just a month ago I bought new, expensive sandals; felt wonderful in the store, a few days later I wore them for several hours and have the achy leg syndrome; I'm going to try to wear them several more times for longer, etc. but I'm worried (mostly about their cost and I needed them, my other several year old sandals are broken badly) I can't wear just "any" shoe (cheap shoes really wreck my feet/don't fit in the first place) I won't wear them enough to break them in or me/them get use to each other and I will have wasted the money.
