Not only have I not had treatment for it, I'd not even heard of it, magnolialady. How unfortunate that you were unable to have a steroid injection. I think I can see their point though as steroids do weaken tissues so, if there is already a tear there, they'd probably do more harm than good.
Did they suggest any treatment for the tendons? If not, I suggest you go back to your doc and ask where you go from here.i guess surgery might be an option.If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.
