Questions still to be answered (dancing, high heels, nerve block, cross-country running, etc.)

So far, a few questions have been asked in the comments to the survey. I will not create any further poll-style questions; instead, I would like to request free-text comments:

1. Any dancers out there? The person who asked that question wanted to know how many of you were able to dance within 3 or so months after the surgery. By dance, she was referring to any type of dance involving hopping, going slightly up on the toes for pivots, etc. (i.e., not ballet). The person who asked the question also taught Zumba twice a week and hoped to go back to it at some point.

2. Ladies, what is the main reason you cannot wear high heels anymore? Pain from wearing them? Very curious as that was found to be a big bummer.

3. Nerve block - one of our readers had a nerve block in her thigh before the unilateral cheilectomy, to help with the pain, and has been experiencing some unpleasant symptoms since the surgery. Please see the comment under this post.

4. Trail/cross-country running - any experience? How soon were you able to run in "random terrain" after cheilectomy?

Please provide your information by sending your comments to this post.
