Default I saw the Orthropedic dr. today......

He took xrays of my very sore ankle/heel and he looked at the MRI results I took to him. He poked around on my foot and finally found the exact spot that hurts so much. He said since I just came off a week of steriods and now on the Prednisone that he thought I needed a shot of Cortisone. He said I have a very inflammed tendon and possibly the begining of Arthritis there So I agreed to the shot of Cortisone.....OUCH!!!!!!! Man does that ever hurt! Now I have ice on my ankle and have it elevated. I hope in a few days it'll feel better. He also said I need inlays in my shoes because I have flat feet! I've never been told that before and I've always had feet issues. He gave me some temporary inlays till I can get better ones.
