Yay.

You remember, a few weeks back I told you I had hurt my ankle, and had to wear a brace for 6 weeks?


Well, that was 8 weeks ago, and the ankle didn't just not get better, it had been getting worse again. Basically, the only thing I can manage is a slow walk on a plane, even ground; anything with an incline or the unevenness of a well-groomed lawn is not manageable.

This finally led my doctor to refer me to have a MRI done.

Result: I have two completely ruptured ligaments, another partially ruptured one and another severely over streched one, the cancellous bone is oedematous and a Hydrops articularis of the upper ankle joint.

yay.

Oh, that's awful! *HUGS* I echo Elb; what do they say in terms of recovery?

I have a tighter brace now, check up is in 10 weeks... *sigh*
