Thread: Laid up with a broken ankle

Thanks everyone! It was very painful for the first week and I really leaned on the painkillers they gave me. But then it was really OK, just had to be careful to keep my balance on the crutches. Today they took the cast off and fitted me with an air boot which means I can start to walk on it a bit, and it already feels much better. Don't know why the faint happened, as I've never fainted before, so still need to investigate this with the docs as I don't want to do it again!!

Oh dear donnad, I do hope you feel better soon. Bruised ribs are awful!
