I'm the one who said my podiatrist would go as far as to move a nerve, and I want to agree with stripes here. I didn't mean you should have that surgery, I just wanted to say look around for different options and see what's available. It sounds like your doctor is playing it pretty conservatively, and a more aggressive approach might make it easier to keep reffing.
