Waiting for X-Rays

Ok - as I mentioned in my last post - my foot started hurting last week. I didn't run on Friday or Saturday, figured if it hurt - I should rest it. I ran 5 miles on Sunday - although my foot hurt - it was doable. But once I stopped, I hobbled around for the rest of the day - it hurt. I put ice on it and took ibuprofen a couple times - woke up today still hobbling - and it still hurts.

Soooooo, I called for an appointment - Orthopedics could get me in next week, but I called my primary and was able to see her. I just got back from the Dr. - I had an X-ray and then came back to work and am waiting to hear the results. I am so hoping that Dr. Goggle and all of her Internet wisdom is WRONG. My suspicion is that it is a stress fracture of either the second or third metatarsal. But then again it might be a tendon pull or stretch, or what ever you might do to a tendon. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I will report back with the results.

I am feeling old. ;-(
