I've not seen my GP but I have something like that in my right foot. I know of another guy in my office that suffers similar too.

I am not surprised really we are all suffering in some way these days. :sad: Being a light tuesday we sat around and chewed the fat today whilst awaiting the missorts and many others have knee, ankle and back problems. When i started i saw men stay on well past 60 years with no problems but most in my office have had enough and wanna go around thier 50's :d'oh!
Rows of houses all bearing down on me........I can feel their blue hands touching me.......All these things in all positions.........All these things will one day take control..........
