Hey Brian,

Glad to hear you are doing so well!

I'm also being introduced to the world of orthotics.  Flat feet and a propensity to load the outside of my foot too much / not put enough weight on the big toe.

Do you find they are generally helping?   I'm having trouble adjusting - I want to blame them for other aches and pains up and down my back and hip and knee -- but am trying!

Yes, the orthotics are doing wonders for me. Initially I had been using a pair of old ones made way back, like almost 10 years ago. I recently had new ones made and after breaking those in, it's helped a lot. In particular it helps with my back.

But keep in mind it takes time to get used to orthotics. If you've never used it before, it'll take your body some time to get used to it.
