Went back to my sports medicine chiropractor this week, he injected the knots in my foot with a magnesium/lidocaine injection.  If this does not work he is going to refer me to a Podiatrist.  So far 6 months, three doctors nobody can find a solution.  Very discouraging but I'll keep training hard and light to moderate running
