My Sexy Boot



For about the past 6 months my right ankle has been hurting when I walk or stand for a long period of time, so I finally had it X-rayed a couple of weeks ago. Big suprise, I have an extra bone in my foot!! How crazy is that? The extra bone is rubbing against my ankle and that is the cause of the pain. Anyway, I saw a foot surgeon on Tuesday and he doesnt reccomend surgery (thank goodness!). I have to wear this lovely boot for about 6 weeks and then I will have some orthodics made for my work shoes. The doc said the problem shouldnt get any worse and as long as it doesnt Im not going to opt for surgery. It sounds very intense and painful.

I dropped a bed on my toe today and it feels like I have more bones than I used to in my toe. What I'm trying to say is "Ifeel your pain." What the eff is a puggle and tell Jason it's "faux pas".

I have an extra bone in my ankle. It used to cause me alot of pain, and still flares up sometimes. I had to wear a brace that wrapped around my foot and ankle for years, particularly when I played sports. It will get better!
