Well, crud. Yesterday's fall was worse than I'd hoped. X-rays at urgent care say I've fractured my fibula (that's the bone on the outside of the leg) in two places. Grr. The good news is that it's not a weight-bearing bone and should heal just fine. I need to do a followup with my primary care and an ortho but at this point I will be off the ice for a while. Grrr.

So sorry to hear about your leg. I hope you heal quickly and are not in too much pain.

Thanks! It's still pretty swollen but the pain is manageable.

Yow! I hate to hear about skating accidents. I've busted two bones while skating (radius and humerus) and did smack my head hard enough to require surgery last year. I'm a believer in the ice-halo now. I'm hoping to have an accident-free season this year. Get Well!
