Update on my skipping in slides incident.
The CT Scan shows multiple fractures, and many chips of bone. Fortunately not enough displacement to warrant surgery 👏🏼
I’m 4 weeks in today and just starting a little weight bearing with crutches, probably about 10% on my foot.
Still having swelling as the day progresses, so I’m still using an ice pack a few times a day and elevating the foot whenever I sit down.
When sewing it is resting on an ottoman but I’m also elevating it on the back of the lounge, so it’s higher than my heart, a couple of times a day.
The progress is slow, but there is progress. 😀
I have the best nurse (husband) who is a domestic god!
Thanks for all the well wishes, they are much appreciated.
Off to the physiotherapist on Friday so we will see what he says.
Back to the specialist in 2 weeks.
Meanwhile my right leg (the good one) is very glad of all the split squats I had been doing at the gym. I’m amazed how long you can stand on one leg!
