I sprained my ankle severely when I was cleaning a closet on Sunday. I was digging out "skinny" clothes and tripped.

So I went to see my orthopedic doctor on Monday afternoon, because I thought I had also broken bones in the foot.

I wore a brace (laces, straps, etc) in to the doctor - but took with me one of those walking boot casts (metal, straps, etc) I had from a bad sprain a couple of years ago. The doc verified it was a really bad sprain - no broken bones. She told me I would need to wear a boot cast for a month. I pulled the one I had from under the exam table - and she looked at it. She said - that it would work - BUT THAT THEY WOULD TOTALLY HAVE TO REBUILD IT BECAUSE IT WAS TOO LARGE.

Yea!

It's great that you're seeing a positive out of this!!

Yay!!! I never knew how fat my feet were but I am down a size already. Hee hee. Congrats!!

Thats great congratulations!

You give me hope that my thick ankles will slim down some!!! Sorry about the sprain Sending lots of healing thoughts your way and wishes for a super speedy recovery!!!!!
