| I think I might have broken my ankle...:( I was getting ready to take Gracie on her walk and I was walking up stairs... Gracie got under my feet and so I tried to switch feet and my ankle gave out and twisted as I was stepping on it... it hurts like no ones business... I scared Gracie because I screamed in pain... poor baby got so scared she peed!!! poor baby! so Im sitting here with my foot elevated and ice on it but it is just throbbing in pain... I called my hubby and he said he would come home and take me to the dr. but I told him not to.. I will just wait until he gets home and then we can go... he should be home in a hour and a half... so... I will find out then! I will let you all know when I find out...

| I broke my ankle several years ago missing the bottom step on my sisters porch. All I can remember is that when I hit the ground.....THEIR WAS NO MISTAKING that my ankle broke...I was sick to my stomach instantly! My DH kept telling me it was a bad sprain...so I did not go to the doctor...listed to him. The next morning I could not walk and it was black and blue and I could not even stand the sheet on the bed to touch it. I hope it is not broke...it's a pain in the butt in a cast that is for sure!

| Oh I hope its not broken! I did the same thing one time.... No dogs involved, just sort of tripped over myself going down the stairs... seriously thought I broke it! I have no depth perception due to eye surgeries when I was a baby so I always trip up & down stairs.. talk about klutzy! Anyways in all the times I ever fell I always got right back up, but this time I was down for the count. My neighbor was a nurse, so I reached the phone, called her and she ran over, looked at me and said Ok, we are getting in the car to go to the doctors. So we went, she was sure it was broken... the doctors were sure it was broken... xrays showed NO breaks! HAHA I got bones like STEEL!!! Must be all the milk we were forced to drink as kids! Me and 2 brothers and none of us ever broke a bone! amazing huh?? It was a horrible sprain though! I was on crutches and an air cast for 2 weeks! It was soooo painful and turned sooo purple uugghhh! Anyways, keep us posted! I hope it feels a lot better today for you!!
