I never met a project I didn’t like
Yesterday I had X-rays done. The results came back this morning - no fractures, just lots of soft tissue damage (oh and some arthritis, neat). So that's good news.....it's looking like no surgeries for me, just rest, ice and elevation. I've been doing ice baths 3 times a day and it's helping quite a bit, but all the walking I did yesterday to go to the doctor and such really flared it up, so just now I'm close to back to where I was yesterday morning as far as swelling and pain are concerned. The doctor told me that even though it's not broken a foot injury like this is still going to take 4-6 (and maybe even 8!) weeks to fully heal and I may still end up in a boot, but we'll wait to see until more of the swelling goes down. Hopefully in the next couple days I'm at least well enough to start some light duty work. I can do a lot of the work sitting down I think. Or maybe I'll just get another project to hold me over until I can get back to this hold over project
