saw Dr. Joy today... she said that it sounds like my injury is a progression of the chronic achilles tendonitis that I've had over the past 3 years (since spring 2006)... she also managed to find a very specific spot on the achilles that hurt like hell when she put pressure on it, and that's likely where I felt the twinge / slip sensation in the most recent development of this problem... I have an MRI on Monday, and then I'll see Dr. Joy again on Tuesday to decide between transdermal nitroglycerin patches, platelet rich plasma injections, or extracorporeal shockwave therapy... I'm kind of scared about what the MRI might show, especially if there's any damage to the structural integrity of the tendon... but Dr. Joy was incredibly helpful... this is the first time that I've seen a doctor about this problem, and actually felt like he/she listened to what I was saying and gave me treatment options other than time off and physical therapy
