Guest guest Posted September 8, 2001 Report Share Posted September 8, 2001 Dr. Kolb, I've never heard of Arcopedicos. Any suggestions as to what type of shoe stores would carry them? Are they okay to wear while at work in the hospital with surgical scrubs? I'm willing to try them if it will help decrease the pain in my feet and my legs during work and when I get off work!!! e > Arcopedicos are made in Portugal and are available from mail order catalogs. > After wearing them you can never wear regular shoes. . > ----- Original Message ----- > From: <eRene@...> > < > > Sent: Friday, September 07, 2001 3:28 AM > Subject: Re: Re: Just my brain fog > > > > Hey--I have foot pain, too, yet I have always attributed > > it to being on my feet all day while at work.
