What to do if clicking absent during dr appt
I've had a textbook clicking for 2+ years, feeling like a rock was in my shoe (even if barefoot), and so I finally switched from the podiatrist that just wanted to keep doing injections every few months and forcing me to wear shoes 24/7 to a different one. When I went to the new one (a Duke doctor no less), he could not generate the clicking in my foot. So then he sends me for a MRI just to confirm a neuroma and the radiologist saw nothing. So now I am on to seeing a neuro, who is going to do an EMG to figure out where the nerve going to my toe is affected since my 4th toe is essentially numb/dead.
So has anyone ever been in this boat and had an EMG show that there is a neuroma? Or on the flip side, has anyone else thought they had a neuroma only to find it was something else?
So tired of the pain. Told my wife I was ready to just drop an anchor on my foot to break it so that someone takes a good look at what's going on in there.
