No More Heels

I finally saw the orthopedist today and my ankle has finally been diagnosed. Severe tendinitis. This diagnosis came with strict instructions: no more heels, no more flip-flops, and once my my shoe inserts are done I need to wear them for 4-6 weeks. Hopefully that will do the trick, otherwise I'm getting a cast...and then if that doesn't work...surgery. So I will sacrifice the heels for a while, but seriously they help lift the booty and elongate the legs. And the flip-flops? Hello! that's one of the main reason's we moved out here--year round flip-flops. It's gonna be tough, but I'll do it. I SO should have had this issue taken care of sooner. The doc said that he usually sees this type of tendinitis in people much older (like 50-60). Um, yeah. I've jacked up my ankle and it's time to take care. Wish me luck, or you'll be signing my cast!
