oh the stress!!

Posted on 6/18/2008 by Amy

I just got back from the podiatrist.  Turns out I have a stress fracture in addition to the gout which caused osteoarthritis, bone spurs and hallux rigidus in my big toe of the same foot that has a stress fracture.  So for now we treat the fracture, I have a boot on my foot for a few weeks, or until I can walk w/out pain, or as he said walking barefoot or taking a shower w/out pain.  I go back in three weeks and we will deal w/ the arthritis/gout/bone spur issues.
