Heel spur surgery may eliminate the heel spur pain temporarily, however, often times people will tell us that the heel spur will return shortly after surgery. Even foot doctors will often even say that there is no guarantee that heel spur surgery will eliminate heel spur for good. This is because heel spur surgery doesn't get to the root of the heel spur problem. You will find the below heel spur testimonials very informative about why people did not want heel spur surgery.

Testimonials - Avoid Surgery
Theresa, Dear Rose, Gratefully, Dolores Arpidone This is D.
Pendergraph and I just wanted to update you on how the product
has helped my wife's pain caused by a heel spur. Well it is GONE!
She started taking the supplement after being told she would have
to have surgery to get rid of the pain. At first there wasn't any
results but as you told us it may take several weeks or months.
She kept taking the supplement and gradually the pain went away.
She does have inserts to go in her shoes that might help some but
they did not cause the pain to go away. She was using them long
before the supplement. She told me the other day that she was out
of the supplement (---vital minerals---) and to order more. We
just placed a reorder. The cost will be very minimal, but will
last a long time. One doctor visit cost more than that. She did
have some injections and said it hurt so bad that she wasn't
going back. That is when surgery was mentioned. Problem is (WITH
SURGERY) - there is no guarantee that the bone spur will not come
back. From what I read it is highly possible that the spur will
come back. With my background in chemistry I understand this
since the cause of the bone spur has not been dealt with in
surgery just the result. Just wanted to let you know that the
supplement does work. Susie tells everyone about the supplement.
No more walking on tip toes. Only downfall is that now when she
shops she doesn't drop near a fast. Thanks You
asked if I would let you know my results, well, here it is! It
is now 5 Jul and I can't say I am completely cured, but I haven't
been taking the ---vital minerals--- as regular as I did when I
first started. But without a doubt I know that in time my bone
spur will be gone. When it is I'm going back to the Chiropractor
and get him to x-ray my heel again just to see the look on his
face when I tell him what I did to cure the bone spur. I'm sure I
could have went to a bone specialist and he would have put me on
Celebrex which would have made me not feel the pain or put me in
the hospital for surgery. Even if I had the surgery there is no
guarantee I wouldn't have had scar tissue which could also cause
heel pain. I'm happy I took the chance on wasting a little bit of
money and tried --vital minerals---. It is very plain that it's
not only important to take ---vital minerals--- supplements but
critically important to take the right kind. Obviously Golden
Rule Enterprises knows exactly what the right kind is. Taking
---vital minerals--- has given me my mobility back and therefore
my life back! Thank
you. C.
Hancock Hazel Green, AL I
have been using your ---vital minerals--- supplement 4 tablets 4x
a day for the last 2 1/2 mos. When I first found your website
about bone spurs I was 2 weeks away from hip surgery to remove
some very painful spurs from my hips. I also have some small
spurs on my feet. I am a quadriplegic, in a wheelchair for 34
years now & am a prime target for these types of disorders
(or so I'm told). After praying about the upcoming surgery the
Lord impressed me to look on the "web" to learn more
about this painful disorder. I knew very little about it. My
doctor said no one knew what bone spurs are caused from &
even if we remove them there is no guarantee they won't come
back. He said they will probably continue to grow & become
more painful. He also said there is no "cure" for them.
My friends warned me that this treatment would only make the
spurs worse & also create kidney stones. I still had to give
it a chance. I read somewhere that this was one of those medical
"myths", possibly started to scare people away from the
nutritional approach. But I've been an advocate of good nutrition
for years. The older I get, the more I can see from personal
experience, that doctors are in the dark ages when it comes to
treating any medical problem nutirtionally. After reading the
information you had posted on your website, I prayed again &
knew I had to give your advice a chance. I had been living on
anti-inflammatory drugs round the clock to get through the day
& night. (Praise the Lord I was able to go off these after
only 2 weeks of taking your supplement!) The testimonials on your
website convinced me that I'd be silly not to give this natural
supplement a chance. Though I still have some pain, it is
bearable now. The spurs on my hips are slowly disappearing,
dissolving I think. They're not as sharp & protruding. I plan
to keep faithful to this regimine. I also plan to contact my
doctor & "let him in on your secret" if he'll
listen. His nurse sure seemed to be interested. I will keep you
posted on my progress. 1-800-701-1959/Request heel spur information
I must admit that I really didn't believe the below information
of how ---vital minerals--- (right combination) would relieve my
heel/bone spur pain. There was no doubt I had a heel spur. This
was confirmed by an x-ray at the doctor's office. And you know
the doctor's recommendation - surgery to remove the spur. I
really didn't want to take the surgery route if there was any
other options. So I got on the internet and that is when I found
your web page. My pain was so severe that I was limping along and
holding on to everything I could to take some weight off my heel.
Well, I felt that I would try (not really believing it would
work) the ---vital minerals--- method. I received the package on
17 Feb 01 and began immediately taking four tablets at each meal
(12 tablets a day) With in four days I could tell the pain was
less. Then each day my problem got a little better. Now it has
been only 10 days and sometime I almost forget about my heel! Can
you believe that!!! I still have some slight, I wouldn't call it
pain, it's more of a discomfort in my heel, but I am walking
normal, as I did before the heel spur development. I must admit
that if I stay on my feel for most of the day then the pain
returns. But the next morning it is gone again. I know the
problem still exist and I plan to continue taking the 12 tablets
a day for a long time. After I am sure the spur is gone I will
cut the amount back some. I can't wait until the spur is gone and
get the doctor to x-ray my heel again! I want to see the look on
his face when I tell him what fixed it! Thank you so much for
sharing with me not only the ---vital minerals--- but the very
important part of the right right amounts, with the right adds,
I.e., Vit D, etc. I have a friend who had surgery on both of her
heels. She hasn't did anything (such as take ---vital
minerals---) to correct the cause of her spurs. I'm betting that
they will return after some period of time (we'll see). You may
use this as you see fit. I hope it might help other people who
don't quite believe in this. Of course it may be that this
doesn't work for everyone, we are all different. The only thing
one could do is try it! Thank you so much! Charles
Our tax counselor had noticed my limping as I walked into his
office and inquired about it. I explained that I had surgery
several weeks earlier on a heel spur. Both of my heels had
painful spurs, but I decided to have only one taken care of at a
time. However, the surgery increased the pain in the foot
operated on dramatically. This tax counselor then began to
counsel me on certain ---vital minerals--- which had done the
most amazing things for him. I asked if he still takes it and his
reply was, Im afraid not to take it. Upon
arriving home, without even removing my coat, I reached for the
yellow pages and called your number. You have indeed proved
exemplary representatives that distribute truly wonderful
products. Im so glad I made that call because you have
become more like friends. A remarkable thing happened...... The
pain in my heels made walking difficult. I canceled every outing
I possibly could. I sat with pillows under my legs, even using
them at night so my heels did not touch the sheets. Because even
touching my skin made them hurt. But, astonishingly, by the time
I had taken only half of my second bottle of the ---vital
minerals---, my husband and I were going dancing again. It was
wonderful. Both feet were perfectly pain free after a year and a
half of constant pain. Not just the one that had been operated
on. If that had been the case, I would have thought it was the
natural consequence of the operation itself. But, both feet were
equally pain free and amazingly both at the same identical time.
Proving the tremendous benefit this Cal+ can produce.
That was two years ago. Like people sometimes do, I occasionally
become too busy to remember to take the ---vital
minerals--- regularly. When that became too frequent I started
limping because of the return of pain in the heel that was not
operated on. As soon as I took the ---vital minerals--- (again)
in a few days the pain left totally. Do I take it regularly now?
Ill tell you like someone once told me - Im
afraid not to take it.
First, I began having severe pain in my right heel. It got so bad
that when I went down stairs I would hold the hand railing and
support myself on the railing rather than using my right foot.
This put a severe burden on my right shoulder and I began having
pain in it. I went to a Chiropractor for relief of my shoulder
pain. During my visit I told him about my heel pain. He suggested
we x-ray my heel to make sure of what might be the problem. As
expected the x-ray showed, very plain, that I had a heel spur or
bone spur. Of course one option was surgery. But I am a believer
the more one can stay out of a doctor's office the better off one
is. So I didn't want to even consider surgery until all else had
been explored. Being that I am a big user of the Internet I did a
search on "bone spur" and in the wealth of information
I came across "Golden Rule Enterprises" offering a
---vital minerals--- supplement which would reverse the effects
of the bone spur. You know the old saying; "If it seems too
good to be true, it probably is."... well that is how I felt
about the claims for --vital minerals---. But, the alternative,
which I didn't want, was surgery. To compound matters I had been
taking ---vital minerals--- (a different company) for some time.
I had even taken liquid ---vital minerals--- in a effort to get
my body to absorb it. But deciding that it wouldn't be the first,
or probably the last time I wasted some money, I would give it a
try. I started taking the ---vital minerals---(12 a day, 4 at
each meal, with food) on 18 Feb 01. Within one week the pain in
my heel was diminishing. With in two weeks I could walk with out
holding on to something. Within a month I could get up and down
the stairs pretty good. Within two months I was having days when
I would forget that I had a heel.
Thankfully,
