HAHA, i knew that would grab attention.... well i was at the hospital to take x-rays (which took FOREVER... i was there for 2 hours). It was horrible, i hate hospitals. Some people had "entourages" who took up all teh chairs (im not joking... this one lady had like 4 family members with her taking up chairs) it normally wouldnt be a big deal to me, but my ANKLE was what was being x-rayed and i was supposed to STAY OFF OF IT (my doctor wanted me to call in sick for 2.5 WEEKS so that i could stay off it as much as possible... but that wasnt an option because i am taking my Leave of absence and it wouldnt be fair to the kids to say "oh shes not coming anymore" especially when i wouldnt get to say goodbye..... so i opted to take three days, the weekend and monday
)
Anyways... the 'unoficial' diagnosis is tendinitis of teh achilles tendin... i took x-rays to rule out the possibility of a break. I am staying of of it as much as possible and taking aleve.... does anyone have any other suggestions??? or hopeful stories on how long recovery will take???? I am hoping it is better by next week, but i scheduled a follow up to get a cortizone shot (sp) next week if it doesnt work....
