I am a retired doc and was over at the physician only sites and posted questions. I got opinions from ortho, neurology, endocrinology, opthalmology, and many other specialties. I was surprised that there were no opinions from podiatrists. I looked up the guidelines and discovered that they do not permit you chaps from participating in doctor to doctor chats. Therefore, out of frustration posted this here. You fellows should get with the program and participate in physician discussions at the physician sites if you want to think of yourselves and be thought of as physicians at all. I got some helpful advice from many diverse medical specialists, none of them were foot docs.
