Well the doc assessed me and said that I haven't broken a bone and my Achilles tendon is in tact.
No! Really! I already knew that last night!
But then he pointed out an interesting "dark" spot on the x-ray around the then tendon.
So, I shall have this lovely cast on until the 11th. He wanted to make it the 14th but that's the day we move to Ireland!
On the 11th they'll remove the cast and decide if I need another cast.
I have been warned to expect to be in a cast for the next six to eight weeks.
JOY JOY JOY!!!
One of the worst things about it is the way my leg has been set. Because the tendon needs to repair I've had to have it set at an angle (as shown) which means I can't actually put my foot flat on the floor.
BASTARD!
