Shopping for heels for me is a pain in the ass too, but for a different reason. I have ballerina feet - and no, I'm not talking about them being calloused and icky. I'm talking about a very very high arch that makes finding shoes that properly and evenly support my weight is not an easy task. The wrong fit and all my eight goes onto the ball of my feet, which causes a nerve down there to inflame leaving me with the feeling that I'm walking on pebbles. Sometimes the pain/rocks sensation lasts for days. So there's a few pairs of heels I can wear a long time with comfort...the rest I only wear when i know I can sit down.

my shoe sizes go from 6-7 depending on the level of arch support.

Have you seen a podiatrist? You might want to think about custom orthotics. Feet don't get better over time, that's for damn sure, but if your arches crash, ouch!

I probably should upgrade before I start rocking one. I've gained 60 lbs since high school.

The answer to my nerve inflammation issue is pretty much steroid injections or getting the nerve removed. I might do it sometime in a less active future, it won't otherwise affect any sensation in the area.

My arches don't ever give me pain - I spent years and hours on point shoes...I guess special arch inserts is shoes that are closed off at the sides might help even the balance of weight, though. Something to think about.

Is it plantar fasciitis? My sister in law had laser surgery done for that a few years ago. Recovery took a while but it hasn't bothered her since.

Yeah, don't dismiss a good podiatrist. If feet are like other joints it's better to catch problems before they turn into chronic misery.
