The foot report

[hildy89]

So I managed to get an early appointment with my dear friendly podiatrist. After some x-rays, he gave me the news. Basically the ankle itself looks fine, it's everything underneath that's screwed up. When I turned my ankle, I definitely tore some ligaments. He's not sure whether I actually fractured a bone along my foot or not (is it a shadow? is it real? is it Memorex?), but we're obviously erring on the side of caution. Basically it's the bone that connects the heel bone and the rest of the ankle. Hence the reason I felt like my heel was giving me issues too. But aside from the inflammation, it's okay. Nothing protruding or deformed, thank god. He wants me to consider taking a few days off to let the pain calm down. I really didn't need the enforced vacation right now. I've barely recovered from all the time I was off with the GI issues. I just hope the rest of the winter is a mild one, because this aircast is a recipe for disaster on icy days.

My mother thinks the loveseat is out to get me. I gave it a home. What did I ever do to it?
