Also, if you can wear casual footwear to work, I recommend going to your local running store to get fitted for shoes. A reputable store will have you try on several different pairs to find the best shoe that fits you and record how your foot lands on a treadmill.
I saw a podiatrist in 2014 but the orthotics won't fit in my cycling shoes currently

I have had job issues since that time and am just now able to start process over to get into s podiatrist

I am trying to remedy situation in meantime. I'm not stupid but I can't get time off at moment and I have big week long ride coming up early June. I'm trying to get to livable discomfort at moment.

I will look into the running shoe store idea as that sounds like it would be helpful for me v
