Thanks debi for the good wishes
ive been to orthodox, rheumatologist, neurosurgeon n all THINK I have peroneal tendonitis! I had surgery in Dec. Common peroneal n. Decompression on outside of knee. Was doing better but the tight pain n burning came back 2 mos ago along w 2 other nerve compressions. Today was the worst ever pain in lower leg and ankle n to top it off have burning pain in low back on same side. Too scary! I go back to neurosurgeon who did my surgery on Thurs. Hoping to get some answers!
Best wishes to you!!

QUOTE=St George 2013;1025454]I can't help but I do understand...just got back from orthopedic dr (first visit) due to swelling on outside of my left foot and that ankle. He says either peroneal tendonitis or just progression of SFN. This new symptom developed about 5 weeks ago and is driving me insane with pain. He gave me one of those funky boots to wear (can't stand anything touching my feet, even shoes) and told me to see my neurologist to see how he wanted to treat it.

Really ? WTH ?....I'm lost as last years Easter egg !

Good luck in your search for answers and I'll be hoping you find some relief.

Take care.
