[Diabetes-talk] diabetic shoes

[cheryl echevarria]

are the arch supports in the shoes or are you supposed to put them in your 
shoes, different shoes. I get mine from the place that was at the convention 
in dallas in 2008 great company, shrevsport diabetic shoes, they did my 
measurements at convention and then every year medicare pays for a new pair, 
you don't have to use the company that the dr uses especially if you are 
medicare, the shoe company will send a release to your dr. and they do all 
the paperwork, but getting back to your shoes, if there is a problem send 
them back or go to the dr,  tell him the shoes don't feel right and this 
should be a podiatrist that is working on your feet. The dr doesn't want you 
working around in shoes that don't feel right they will make your feet 
worse.

Don't be afraid to tell your dr, the shoes don't feel right tell someone dr 
or people who made the shoes if reliable source they will remake your shoes 
or refit them for free.
