It's even nicer to know I'm not crazy.Nice to know you can bounce back from the same kind of injury that sidelined Aaron Rodgers last year.

I'd be worried about all the cat hair, honestly.I'd rather have the cat than the coffee, lol.
Think of it as extra flavor.I'd be worried about all the cat hair, honestly.
So, remember that leg injury I got jumping rope? The one that was feeling better? Come to find out, my Achilles tendon tore away from the calf muscle. My wife told me I needed to have the doc look at it. She said I don't feel pain like normal people so I went. Unfortunately, it took another 2 weeks to see the guy who actually knew what he was talking about. They said I needed an MRI before seeing anyone, but the orthopedic guy disagreed. He said he could tell what happened just by looking at it. So, now they've got me in a boot for 3 weeks (1 to go) and he says there's an 85% chance I won't need surgery. He said if they had just sent me to him, it would have been higher.
Anyway, I'm looking at the bright side. The tendon is fine and the calf muscle is fine.....they're just not connected anymore.
Also, I don't know what the hell Nancy Sinatra was talking about....this boot ain't made for walkin'....LOL
Yeah.....those boots take some getting used to. I go in on Monday after three weeks and the orthopedic doc says he can probably tell me whether or not it's healing the way he wants. I'm of the opinion that it isn't healing quite right and it's probably due to the primary care delayed me seeing the orthopedic guy by two weeks because they insisted I needed an MRI. Ortho doc said they were wrong....oh well. I did notice, however, that my calf is contracting somewhat when I (gently) move my foot so maybe that's a good sign.Similar thing happened to me. I sprained my foot halfway into a half marathon back in May (still finished the race wildly). Took a month off from running (continued to strength train though) and just RICEd. My wife pushed me to go to the doctor following that month and that's when I found out I had actually broken it. Basically strained my peroneal tendon so hard that it snapped the bone on my outer midfoot. I didn't need surgery thankfully, but spent the next two months in that damn boot. I will say you have a much more positive outlook than I had haha. I was so miserable not being able to run and feeling trapped in that thing most of the summer.
But I'm coming up on six weeks now that I've been out of it and have been training for my next half marathon in a couple weeks. Been grueling, but I'm just grateful it was an easy recovery all things considered.
Aaaand they suspended the port strike and this was all for naught.Mass hoarding as much toilet paper and paper towels is such an American thing.
But at least they now have enough toilet paper to last well into the new year.Aaaand they suspended the port strike and this was all for naught.
Your butt will thank you for using such a high quality product for the rest of your life.Oh man! Selling TP on the black market was going to be my retirement plan.
Now what am I supposed to do with 6000 rolls of two ply Charmin?
I’m actually a Members Mark TP guy. (Sam’s Club brand). It’s the softest out there. It’s like wiping with a flushable t shirt that’s been wrapped in cotton puffs.Your butt will thank you for using such a high quality product for the rest of your life.
Never knew you were such a connisuoir of TP.I’m actually a Members Mark TP guy. (Sam’s Club brand). It’s the softest out there. It’s like wiping with a flushable t shirt that’s been wrapped in cotton puffs.
I’m very experienced with it. I have used it every day of my life since I was a toddler.Never knew you were such a connisuoir of TP.
Wishing you good luck.Going in for more test this upcoming week.
Sorry to hear. Best of luck mate, hope it turns out ok.Got some unexpected medical issues. I’m hoping for the best, but can use whatever good vibes I get my way.
