Wow, I haven`t been on here for a while ,so many replys and good advice thanks everyone,
Thanks T_Andrews,9 weeks since you broke yours ,It does take a long while doesn`t it.As it turned out the my first cast was too loose,(perhaps swelling had gone down) allowing the foot to waggle about in relation to the bone and causing pain .
This one is much better holding everything securely now ,what a difference as when on crutches you can`t help swinging the foot slightly.It does make sense to go back if you feel something isn`t right.
Thanks Pete,argh! you must have suffered too,plates and screws, it sounds as if i am very fortunate not to have had these fitted,although I was warned many times that if I didnt look after it while healing and it went out of place then they would have to operate and fit a plate.
Radical,Hi,Thanks for your good wishes Steve, Its surprising how many people have had the same injury and I now feel very humble compared to what others have suffered.
On a lighter note regarding Ibuprofen, I cant take them,(makes me short of breath) so been given something else ,However no one told me they put a stop to daily movements if you know what I mean, ! oh no!
Edward C .Thanks Eddie for your best wishes, yes it sound as though the ligaments will take some time to build back up . It was very interesting to hear everyones experiences and get their advice ,because when your not flying , all you can think of is getting fit again to get back in the air.
Thanks again guys look after yourselves Tony.
