Achilles - Mid-Portion Tendinosis

Hey Y’all -

I’ve been pretty down in the dumps trying my hardest to heal a nagging Achilles injury since early January, and I’m not really seeing improvement. I’ve gone to a podiatrist, got an MRI that says it’s Tendinosis and lots of inflammation. I’ve gone to PT, I’ve gotten dry needling, and I’ve gone to an ortho for a second opinion. I’ve completely stopped running for the past 7 weeks, with a mile here or there to test it, and I’ve had no luck.

Has anyone beaten this or Achilles tendonitis? I’m still not running, going to PT, and considering putting myself in a boot and doing Electric Shockwave Therapy. Any advice or success stories would really help my heart cause I’m currently being told it might be a long road….
