Thank you so very much for your ideas, Amber and Erin – they are amazing and really support some of my own thinking about the heel spur.
I did wonder about my liver function, and it is true that when I am in California (usually three months out of the year now), I always feel mineral depleted at the end. And this heel issue started at the end of my CA stay in March. I will work on my mineral intake — and uptake, which means supporting my liver more. MSM supplementation along with upping my AV fulvic minerals was an idea I had last week. Amanda Vollmer seems to really swear by MSM as well, and I trust her judgement. And just today, I found an osteopath (here in Austria) to figure out gait and other related issues: she sounds right up my alley, but should I need more, I will ask you for your recommendation of that person in Ohio, Amber.
As far as GNM, Erin, I love what you say and feel there is truth to it (and yes, I’m right-handed): My nesting “issue” is to re-integrate into Austria after decades of living/working in the US. Austria is where I grew up and where I have family. But … it’s not easy to make that return happen and lots of worries have come with it, especially over the last year (and right now it is unbelievably difficult to simply find an apartment). So … onward and off to work. 😉
Many thanks again – for your ideas and reading/witnessing this. I hope others will be supported by it as well.
