My "-ists" are the best was created by Melinda
So today I saw a new "-ist" - an orthopedist for the tendonitis in my ankle [have one for hand surgery and now one for foot]. He saw I have neuropathy & said "you're not diabetic are you?", I said no it's idiopathic. He said you know what idiopathic means don't you, we are idiots because we don't know why, there is a reason but we don't know it. :laugh:

Yeah, I do like my "-ists"!

Achilles tendonitis? Let me know what he suggests. I've had it chronic for years.
