So I'm down a couple/a few lbs., but I'm also down in mood at the moment. I had an MRI on my ankle when I got back from Florida early last week. I injured it a while ago, but it had gotten to the point lately where it could no longer be ignored for any 24 hour period. Since I was going in for a checkup anyway (Back in February, when I re-kickstarted my health quest), I had my doctor refer me to a podiatrist. So to keep a long story from getting any longer, I have a small tear in my Achilles as well as peroneal tendonitis.
I am dreading surgery. So before that is a concern, I was prescribed shockwave therapy (to promote my body to self heal) and physical therapy, but no anti-inflammatories or ice. The tech administering the shockwave therapy also doesn't want me walking as much I have been or training in martial arts, which I had picked up last year. On the other hand, it's probably martial arts (particularly a few stances that have me otherwise hyper-flexing my foot) that got me to this point.
Normally I would only take the recommendation under advisement and do whatever activity does not hurt, but my insurance is not covering the shockwave treatments. Since I am paying for it out of pocket, I really want to give it the best chance to work.
