Back in August, my feet started hurting...bad. I thought of ALL the possibilities of what it could be...
...sore from wearing flip flops...nope they still hurt in the winter...
...sore from old running shoes...nope they still hurt when I got new shoes...
...stress fracture from running....nope they would hurt when I had not run for days...
While attempting to keep my goal of running a 10k by the end of the year, I decided to keep running and deal with the pain
After my last 5k on Mother's Day weekend, I was putting lotion on my feet when I noticed something alarming...a bump..
So the mind wandering began again...
...bone spur...wart...What could it be?
9 months later, I finally made an appointment with a podiatrist.
Today I got my answer...
...A Ganglion Cyst.
So 2 needle pokes, numb toes, and bruised (sore) feet later, I wait...3 more weeks to see if it disappears...if not, it comes to Option 2 or 3...neither of which I wish to go through.
Cyst, Cyst Go Away. Come again...NEVER!
