Achilles tendon-usage in cycling

About 2 years ago my world was running 3 miles a day and even though I was horrible, I was the happiest I'd been in a long time. After running for a few months, I was diagnosed with Achilles tendinitis (my tendon was inflamed) and shortly after that, I had it in my other foot. I can't run, jump, stand on my toes, or walk more 3 miles a day. After a year of NO exercise and gaining 30lb, I'm at the end of my sanity. I NEED to push my body and to me biking seemed like a good fit.

So, my question, can I bike? (Im not looking for racing, just physically able.) If so, possible way for my training going?? If not, any suggestions?

Thank you!!!! And yes I know going and trying is the best idea but I don't own a bike ^^
