I am in the process of having an Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy done tomorrow. I hope it works as I ended up having 2 heel spur surgeries in '95 and '96 on my left foot (this is now on my right foot). Will let you know if it works. I am having it done at the Bedford Ambulatory Center in Bedford, NH.
