I friggen knew it!
Here I have been walking around on my foot for over a month and kept telling my doc I think I have a fracture. He took xrays, no nothing here. I went back due to the pain, he ordered a bone scan, no nothing there. Went back because I am beside myself in pain and he finally wrapped it in a bandage and sent me for an MRI. I went for the MRI Friday, they didn't get the results by my appt. time today (you would think they would have called me and canceled) he looks at the films they gave me of the MRI and says I'm no expert but I don't see anything. So he sticks a needle into the top of my foot with numbsit stuff (Thank God my son was the only one out in the waiting room, cause I screamed! ) Get home about an hour goes by and I'll be damned if they don't call me and tell me the Radiology guy says there is a fracture and you need to come in and get a cast put on in the morning. I'm like G really!!!!

So. Maryland Orthopedics never did figure out whether I broke my ankle two years ago.. They "couldn't tell" because I had had two surgeries on it previously. So, they gave me a boot to wear until it quit hurting.

This was a Podiatrist, you would think he would know the signs and symptoms of a fracture in the foot! Apparently not.

Yes it was, and how did you know that?

It's Idol that will be putting the cast on tomorrow, and I DO NOT like him!

Definitely change Podiatrists. I hope you feel better.

A hard cast or a walking cast?

Her case is not unusual. Not all hairline fractures are easily visable.

Might just be hard on one side and soft on the other. I fractured my foot years ago. I was in a soft cast and after about 2 weeks I was fine.
