I'm afraid I don't know too much about feet stuff, except that my mom has bad feet and if she's not wearing shoes that have her orthodics in them, they give her terrible pain (she even wears shoes around the house). Have you tried going specifically to a foot doctor?
They aren't custom orthotics but they are close. I haven't been to a foot doctor since I'm fairly certain he is just going to tell me to lose weight... That is what all the doctors tell me for everything else... excuse me for sounding frustrated but I've been telling doctors that my weight gain was abnormal and I was having pain when exercising for 4 years now and no one seems to listen.

I'm looking into bariatric surgery since I'm certain once I can lose weight most of my pain will go away. I have an orientation I'll be going to in October.
