: A friend of mine started having pain in one foot in August that he
: thought was caused by his sciatica. It has gotten progressively worse
: and several different doctors have been baffled by it. They thought it
: was gout, then turf toe, now they admit they don't know. He's been
: prescribed increasingly strong pain & anti-inflammatory medicines
: including neurontin, with little effect. He's been using crutches to get
: around but hasn't been able to work in 2 months. We don't know if the
: pain which has now spread to both legs, back, shoulders and arms is
: because of 'walking wrong' or if the ailment is spreading. I can get
: more details from him to post here if need be. Are there any websites or
: newsgroups that deal with this? Thank you!
