Went and and saw CEM, he was very thorough and did his best and yes it cost me a quid or two but at the time he did say that he felt that my problem stemmed from a severe lack of flexability in my ankles which then puts incredible pressure on the underside of my toes or something like that.
Result was that even with new footbeds and other minor adaptions and efforts to expand the flaxability of my ankle it made no difference! After 3-4 hours the 'horror' pain returned. Never mind got used to the fact that at any given moment I whip the boot off and start again. Excellent week in Soll was had.
If you have problem feet, I would even though it didnt help me recommend CEM as it will not be through lack of trying or knowledge that your 'problems' will not be rectified.

I have neuroma related pain in both feet. Custom fit ski boots did not help. After 3 years of agonizing experimentation, I found the only solution was to switch to snowboarding. The real key was to use bindings with a toe strap. Snowboard bindings that strap over the top of my foot were just as bad as ski boots. I hope this this message will save someone else from having to go through years of trial and error.

Welcome to J2ski :D I have had 2 Mortons Ops, and I have my ski boots modified to take account of the post op problems. It's good to hear that it's possible to get relief from the pain, though I'm not sure I could cope with your solution )
