Erin! Erin! Erin! Take it easy girl...I am glad you didn't break anything but sprains/strains can be harder to heal than a break!
Do what the doc says and take care!!!! Don't push it! I have done that with a sprained ankle and end up doing more damage along the way and it takes longer to heal...
Crutches are a pain! You will get used to them. Make sure you use them correctly otherwise you will get tired easily! When I broke my ankle and had to stay off it for 8 weeks, I ended up using my desk chair on wheels to get around the house! Worked like a charm and much easier than those stupid crutches!!!
