Am at my wits end.

August 2015 I began having the first signs of plantar fasciitis in both feet. As of now the pain is still there but is tolerable.

Sometime after that got tenosynivitis in my right ankle which comes and goes even today.

January this year I began having tight calves to go along with them

February I walked every day to see if it would loosen me up but compensated due to right ankle pain.

Two weeks after that pain was gone in both feet and lasted til I went back to running and jumping again.

Two weeks after that I began to have hip tightness on both sides leading to tight IT bands and at the time pain in knees when walking. Got that sorted by a myotherapist but knee pain comes and goes even today.

As of tonight September 18 2016 I now have tightness and pain in the front of both hips, left moreso then right, tight lower back at times, IT bands wont loosen and the tightness has progressed down to my peroneals down to both ankles leading to left ankle pain though thankfully no extra right side pain.

At its worst my quads tighten and it pulls on my adductor muscles as well as the outside and back of my hips when moving. And at its worst i cannot sleep on my side because of the hip pain.

When I sit down my trapezius muscles tighten on either side of my neck leading to pain down my chest to my bicep on the left side, I can no longer sit for any length of time and cannot stay standing all the time cause of my feet problems still existing.

Have spent $4,000 seeing specialists, getting scans, and about to spend another $300 trying to chase relief but wondering if there is any.

I try stretching pretty much everything, calves, ankles, quads, hamstrings, glutes, have now taken up swimming of a morning along with the lightest weight I can use in workouts (1-2 stacks max), can no longer work because of these issues and am hating life more and more. I had an mri on my left hip which ruled out structural damage, only had gluteus minimum tendinosis and mild trochanteric bursitis which I got a cortisone injection for.

I dont know if the stretches I do are making me better or worse so am totally lost.

Am at my wits end not knowing if it is my TFL, hip flexor, QL, piriformis, about the only thing I am sure of is it is not my psoas. I cannot sit, I cannot sleep, I can barely walk on my worst days and cant live like this.
