hi you had tendinitis in your (R) ankle and have stress fracture in (L) foot .
Stress Fracture occurs when uneven and unnatural pressure is applied on the foot for a prolonged period of time . It also indicates weakness in the bones.
In my opinion it is unlikely to be related to Tendinosis in other ankle. I would suggest immobilization for 3 weeks and if required take calcium and vit D3 supplementation.
