Just got a new PT and we were talking about my PFO braces. She said that it would help to have a size bigger, 1/2 to full size bigger, and a wide shoe. With the braces taken up space and with the swelling of our feet, this could help ALL of us with comfort of our shoes. Todd in CC, TX

The one place she remembers is www.drewshoe.com . She dealt with quite a few different companies and tried on many, many shoes before she found something that fit. She is a tall gal and her feet are very swollen and needs a size 12 extra wide which many places don’t carry. She will check her paper work to see if there were any others and I will let you know.

Linda I have a dear friend that has terrible neuropathy in her feet and lower legs. Since her feet tend to swell and she wears a large size she couldn’t find shoes that fit. It goggled “shoe for people with neuropathy and found a number of website that do sell shoes for people with problem feet. Check it out. She even found one has free shipping and if the shoe doesn’t fit you can return and they pay the return shipping costs. I will check with her which site that was and let you know.

This topic has come up before, but of course I can't remember what I learned at the time..... Has anybody found a pair of shoes that are really comfortable? You know, good ones that can actually touch our nerve burning feet without pulling our hair out. I wore my sandals all last winter in the snow. I just can't stand to have shoes touch the tops of my feet. If you've found good ones, what brand and where do you find them? A big thank you to all Linda - Eagle, ID
