Stromie's Journal, 23 February 2018

Up and down, up and down, (204, 202.8, 203.8, 203,205,202.8 — all in the same day, with the same lack of clothing). It’s a new scale, so that’s not the problem. I feel like a rocket ship yo-yoing on a one day cycle. So glad I will see my blood pressure doctor in 2 weeks, also my pain doctor. I want to walk! I looked forward to it, had built up a reputation in our 93 apt building of being the lady who walks!

I’ll try again, tomorrow - but only 15 minutes this time, not 40 as I tried to do last Wednesday. Maybe walking for too long a time period is increasing the pain. I can see the foot orthotics specialist I think the same day I see my blood pressure doctor. HE says it sounds EXACTLY as if my inserts need updating to my present weight, foot size, and angle of walking. (These are from 10 years ago) I wish the Dr Scholl’s arch supports from Walmart ($40) would work, but I looked at them, and they, also, are not tall u

Have a good night, folks, and a good weekend.

The good news is that whereas the Podiatrists (foot doctors) want $435 to $500 just for the arch supports, Mr. Mike Pezzotta still makes them for $265.00/pair!

I’ve been going to him for 20 years —he does wonderful, custom work; each orthotic is made from leather and rubber, to your exact needs. In NJ, to get the equivalent foot support is $500 from other places.

Mike is moving his workshop and store to South Carolina. I’ll post the location here & on FaceBook to letpeople in SC know how good he is. He also modified custom orthotic shoes to fit precisely and do a better job; he makes custom shoes and SANDALS with built in custom arch supports! (Dreams Of sugar plums dancing in my head!)

Now all I need is the money!
