22F on 20 mg for 2 months, developed sudden Achilles tendinitis both sides 3 weeks ago and then today - my backs, both wrists and elbows are KILLING ME. Has anyone experienced this without it going away after stopping? Is it reversible? I feel like I’ve been run over
Hi - I took 20 mg for only 2 months but will be stopping now due to side effects I can’t handle. I didn’t have significant face acne but my body acne was out of control, does anyone know - what are the chances I will actually develop facial acne after coming off? I’m so worried - has anyone been in a similar position?
Hi guys, started 20mg 2.5 months ago…played a badminton game 3 weeks ago and got really bad Achilles tendinitis in my right foot; limped for a week and then developed the same in my left foot, I’ve been housebound for about 3 weeks now. I’m working with a PT starting this week but I will GENUINELY take any and all advice and hope anyone can give me. Will this ever go away or have I permanently ruined my ankles?? Please please help I’m so scared thanks so much
Edit: I’ve noticed just tonight that I think I may have developed tendinitis in my wrists 😭 they feel heavy and I can feel a dull ache at rest that gets worse with use - I feel like I’m in a nightmare
22F - developed agonizingly painful right back of ankle overnight 2 weeks ago - treated as tendonitis following one-off badminton session, acutely developed the same thing this morning in the other foot with no overuse history as I’ve been resting for about two weeks now since the first injury - finally saw an ortho today who said he’s suspecting paratenon inflammation/injury instead of Achilles tendonitis. Has anyone ever experienced this????? I’ve never heard of this before and if so how can we treat it if anyone knows?
Also - I take accutane, wondering if anyone knows of a link?

22F - on accutane (idk if it’s actually related, I read it could be), developed Achilles tendonitis on R foot after game of badminton 2 weeks ago, still in the awful reactive phase when today I felt a niggling pain and stiffness in the back of my left foot…done zero activity over the last two weeks so there’s no way this is overload. Has this ever happened to anyone????? Developing a random second tendonitis in the second foot? Please please help

Hi - I’m a 22 year old female. Got my first episode of Achilles tendonitis exactly 2 weeks ago today. It had just began to start to settle when I went to a pt on Wednesday and he suggested we do shockwave on it. It’s been in major major pain since then, but feels a bit different than the original tendonitis pain. The whole foot hurts even the soles of the foot and sides of the ankle, and they hurt even at rest and I occasionally get sharp pangs at the base of the heel. Has anyone experienced anything similar? Any idea what’s going on or what I should do? Any good/bad news? Please help

Hi - I really need your help. I’m 22 - I’m not a fan of explosive movement and only do incline walking and weightlifting. I accompanied a friend to 2 badminton sessions, the second one I played while my right Achilles tendon had mild-moderate pain. This happened a week ago today, I had severe Achilles tendonitis 2 days after that second session. Went down significantly after icing the first time, started going to a pt doing shockwave stuff a few days later but I still can’t walk for longer than 5 minutes. I can’t move, I’ve been housebound for a week. I’m so scared - just wondering what you guys think are the chances I’ll actually fully recover vs have this become a chronic issue? I feel like my life is over
