PF for 3 years and counting, shock wave therapy helped for a while but is expensive. My usual phisio got nowhere with it and the NHS discharged me saying they couldn't help. Recently started treatment with a guy called Colin Rigby at Tobutt Sports in Bolton and i have started running again. It took a couple of months and its not a pain free treatment but it does seem to be working. Anyone out there suffering with this close enough to Bolton, i would suggest giving him a try
