(More customer reviews)I have peripheral polyneuropathy, a degenerative disorder that causes numbness AND excruciating pain in my feet and lower legs. It is difficult to explain to someone who has not experienced it. Think of feeling like you have thick socks on preventing you from feeling things, while at the same time you have electric, zinging pains feeling as if you are being shocked or stuck with needles. After being on my feet for as little as 30 minutes, I normally have excruciating pain for 1-6 hours afterward, frequently requiring a narcotic, as well as a hefty dose of Lyrica several times a day. I have been searching for the last 2 or 3 years for the perfect pair of shoes, and I think I may have found them at last!
I am a nurse practitioner, and I work anywhere from 8 to 24 hours at a time, with a lot of walking and standing in our busy, 56 bed neonatal unit. Halfway through the night, I'm having to take off my shoes and socks because the mere touch of them against my feet is more than I can bear. And then, several hours more after I get home before I can get comfortable and go to sleep. I have tried Z-coil, Crocs, Born...I just haven't found one I like.
Then, a friend got a pair of these MBTs (in another style), and let me try them on the other day. IT WAS AMAZING. They totally change the impact of the shoe against the foot, with more of it coming at the arch, and less on my tender toes and heels. So, less toe and heel pain, and greater arch support. Genius!!!
Just incidentally, my husband washed my Crocs in really hot water, and they shrank. He forgot to tell me this before I left for my 16 hour shift last week. Just the slight increase in pressure on my feet made that shift horrible for me. And the next morning, I discovered these shoes. I went home, ordered a pair c overnight delivery so I would have them in time for yesterdays shift. My feet haven't felt this good after a night like that in so long I cannot remember. I have taken nothing extra for pain in over 12 hours!! Hallelujah!!
I would imagine these will benefit many conditions--diabetic neuropathy, plantar fascitis, polyneuropathy, among others. Considering the benefits, the cost is more than reasonable. Anything that enables me to care for my patients in comfort is BRILLIANT!!!
Incidentally, I chose this particular style for the "cute" factor--It looks good with my scrubs at work, and I can still wear it with slacks or a long skirt. Yowza!!
