So I got a referral from my doctor, and by the power of private medical insurance I saw Dr Cathy Speed at the Lea hospital on Tuesday. She was very good - she runs herself I think - and she seemed to think I do have PFS, and that it is fixable by a combination of physiotherapy, and possibly orthotics.
She's referred me on to a physio Jayne Warrington and a bio-mechanics specialist, Sophie Cox. Plus I have to see Dr Speed again next week and she'll put me on the treadmill to confirm what she thinks is causing the PFS - she reckons its lack of core stability, basically causing my leg to collapse inward as it lands.
All pretty hopeful really. It's the marathon next weekend of course, so it would be nice to get going again around that time.
