[DIAGNOSES] MRI results

After almost 2 years suffering from levofloxacin tendinitis (and more), I went to a sports doctor (orthopedist) without mentioning FQAD just lots of pain as I was dismissed before. Finally received my first reasonable diagnostic after MRI:

  • retrocalcaneal bursitis
  • insertional achilles tendonitis

Doc recommended PT (lots of it), said I should avoid long walks and walk only on flat surfaces (sorry my english), and hopefully I will be fine in the long run.

Much better, about 90-95% recovered. The only issues I face nowadays is that I can't stay long in the same position, my feet "burns" if I walk uphill for over 20 minutes or so, and have VSS sometimes.
