I don't know if there's much truth in that.

Something to definitely get under control, asap.<br /><br />I went to a reflexologist for years and found it sooooo relaxing and beneficial too. Maybe something to consider?<br /><br />Have a better week OK!!!<br /><br />Take care, G (and Mr. C) he Geraldine https://www.blogger.com/profile/07410019941984295767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8984234400935984998.post-53199716984369114092015-12-08T18:19:29.793+00:002015-12-08T18:19:29.793+00:00Oh my....

My husband had it in his knee once and had to use crutches for a few weeks. He loves the home remedies and ate/drank/popped pills of any type of cherries. He now makes it part of his daily pill regiment. I hope it steers clear from now on!kdenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07504994174268834559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8984234400935984998.post-32046838267799870732015-12-07T09:10:18.248+00:002015-12-07T09:10:18.248+00:00Good morning, Ron.

Oooh I didn't know you were a foot reflexologist although I was aware that you were multi-talented. <br /><br />You're right when you say a painful foot affects the whole body. I remember how wretched I felt. At the moment I am pain free and I'm praying it stays that way. <br /><br />Have a good week, my friend.
