This little toe went to ......

pancake land.

Is still very bashed looking, still bleeding and still can't bend it :(

Am getting ear bashing about going to Dr, but I think I might have to relent and go and see if it's worth having it xrayed.

It doesn't hurt - unless I bash it or walk on it "properly". It can't be broken can it? I'd e wriggling in agony and unable to stand/walk if it was broken, wouldn't I?

Have now spent 2 weeks, 4 days in crocs. I'd actually like to wear some nice shoes now please.

Ponio going to be equissaged tomorrow - he'll love it. Will do Squirt too if I can. Actually ... should find out spare battery and charge it up in case there's not much power in current battery.

Hope I can walk properly by next week - we're going to Edinburgh on Monday!!

Sickening ... I was voluntarily in work and working by 7:25am this morning. Am shattered though now.

Curry tonight was Delish and then saw Ice Age 3 - yey for Sid (AND it was in 3D - bonus!)

Plotting/wangling/Big Secret is on hold til Sat. Will know more then - squeeeeeeee again.

  1. Go to A&E and get it x-rayed. They don't do anything for broken toes BUT it will help to know what you're dealing with.

    Am intrigued about the Big Secret.

  2. Been to Dr. It most likely is broken :(

    However, it isn't obviously a displaced fracture (if indeed it IS fractured) and if I'm coping OK (which I am really) then I'm allowed to avoid A&E if I want to avoid being in plaster :)

    Because it's a big toe, they have nothing to strap it to (ie another toe) and would put it in plaster hence the reluctance to go to A&E in the first place LOL

    He did say though that given the amount of soft tissue damage that's evident (ie swelling and bruising) it's likely it'll always be stiff and an arthritis candidate in the future - nothing particularly new there then LOL

    Range of movement should increase as swelling decreases and all damage heals :)
