Saw that coming....

MRI results are in, and it looks like it is supposed to look. Which means the cause of my pain isn't anything structural, it's the tendons getting inflamed and pushing on the nerves. That's according to the doctors. I believe that is partially true. I think in addition to the tendonitis, there is something that happens when my skin gets touched that causes me insane nerve pain. I am still unable to wear a sock! I haven't started using the TENS yet (hopefully this week) but I will report back on whether or not that gives me any relief!

    hi mary!!!!
    just found out that my pain in ankle is tendons too :( on plus side i got 6 screws and the plate removed from one side of ankle, screw on other side is still in as he didnt want to cause more scar tissue around the tendon which would have irritated it more :( so back to crutches again for a while!!!
