Default My ankle saga, next chapter

I saw my ankle doc on Monday. She wanted to know why I wasn't wearing my fleece lined, knee high, walking cast. I stopped wearing it last week when it was 79degrees, and I was sweating my u know what off. I told her I was tired of wearing it. But, I still had an ace wrap on it, I'm not one to make pain worse.

So, she got me this lightweight brace that allows me to wear my new, new balance, shoes on BOTH feet. Yay!
I start PT at the end of the month. Now that's what I'm talking about.

It turns out I tore my ATF, the tendon that runs along the outside of the foot. Well that explains why it is still bruised, today, day 105.

I'm supposed to make 20 clockwise circles then counterclockwise circles daily. Along with the capital letters of the alphabet with my toes. Anyone care to join me?

One, two, three .... Anyone? How about the alphabet, A...B...C... I can't hear you. Why do I get the feeling I'm all alone? I'll just get my other foot to work with me. I knew I could find a PT buddy.
