Today I got to feel like a rich American - I chose drugs over the
less-expensive foot brace because I don't want my year-long foot injury to slow
me down. I declined the MRI, though.
Over a year ago, I injured my foot on the elliptical. It's mostly healed, but the pain has never
completely subsided. Today my option was
foot brace or drugs. I chose drugs, and
my foot is still numb.
I have to stay off my foot for 7-10 days. No playing on my new elliptical, no walking,
and no crazy new thing like rock climbing.
Kate will actually make sure I follow this strict routine - I'm not sure
if that's "fortunately" or "unfortunately". I'm sure tired of the injury, but I'm already
anxious to get up and MOVE.
Hopefully at the end of the week, I'll be pain-free for the first time
in more than a year! I can't wait to
hike without limping for days afterwards.
Until then, though, I'll have to be extra careful about what I eat.
