No news is good news?

My left foot has been swollen to cartoon character proportion and the bruising nearly wraps around my foot and over my big toe. I finally agreed to see a doctor yesterday. She was shocked by the state of my poor appendage and sent me off for an x-ray immediately. I expected to hear from her last night or sometime today, but it's been radio silence. Not that I had time to chat with ~anybody~ today thanks to work craziness...

But anyway, I'm going on the assumption that I just pulled and popped a couple of somethings in my foot and nothing is broken or needs medical intervention to heal properly. I am jonesin' something awful to be on my bike(s). This week's weather has been absolutely divine and I've been stuck on the sofa. I think that June is a bad month for me being on a bike.

May I make a suggestion? Call your doctor this morning and at the very least leave a message that you had not heard from her and would like to know what is up w/your foot. At the very least, she should be able to direct you to the proper person to harass. If she was that concerned re: your foot, you are owed information on what is going on so that you don't inadvertantly do something to make it worse.

I finally got enough of a break from firedrills and conference calls to leave a message at reception.

I hope you hear back soon. I guess I've been really lucky because the few times I've had x-rays, I reviewed them with my doc or the radiologist before I was sent home. And usually the x-ray tech let me see them, too :)
