Well, I opted not to have the shots and ended up having surgery. Was off my foot (workouts) for 4 weeks and have no pain now. So every situation is different. I think going to a foot doctor as opposed to the regular doctor may be a clue as to taking a shot as opposed to not taking one. My regular doctor told me the same thing: that the shots could weaken my tendons around the shot area. My foot doc said it wouldn't, as long as you rested it a few days. So I guess opinions vary, as do solutions to the problem.
