Well hopefully I wont have many more days that wobbly for a while. Using a cane is difficult enough at work when I need both hands and need to get around on my feet all day but If I had to, its good to know what works and what doesnt.

I got fitted for my ankle brace today, I will be getting it in about 4 weeks, Given that it fully encloses my foot and fastens just under my knee, I hate to think ahead to when I will need one for both, but hopefully it will make getting around a little easier.
