Hi, My name is Jolene. I have planter fibromatotis. Two (2) nodules on left foot. I had cortisone shot last year April 2012. it helped for 9 months. Both of them went away. They came back in Jan 2103. I went to get another shot of cortisone. This caused reverse reaction. They both grew larger. They are now about the size of chicklet gum. I found a doctor who has Fibroma patients. He has prescribed verapamil. I have been using this for almost 3 months. I go back June 25th for another ultra sound to determine if they are shrinking. It is a slow process. At this point I cannot tell if the verapamil has been working. I did have orthotics. They ended up hurting more than helping. I have purchase a pair of 'Go Walk' shoes from Kohl’s. I have had Great success wearing these shoes. No pain while walking. This shoes are cushioned and they are washable.
If anyone would like to email me directly please feel free to. Patty.carder@gmail.com I feel so all alone in this. I am hoping to find other people who have this issue. I can’t imagine living life this way. I am single 54. Live alone. It blows my mind as medical science can take a man and turn him into a woman. Yet they cannot figure out how to fix Plantar fibroma, bumps on the bottom of our feet. .
I am scared. I go to every prayer session I can find in the Atlanta area. I have mass amounts of people praying over me for the bumps to go away
