Today I went back to the Dr. With the xray negative, like her, my PT, me, the dog, and some random guy on the street knew it would be, she recommended a steroid shot to the irritated area. She doesn't think it's torn or anything, still just irritated. Perhaps after my week of drugs (when if felt good) I returned to running too soon.
Her course of action: steroid shot, no running or anything else that causes it to hurt, for 2 more week, when I return to running, short runs on the DREADMILL. I have the treadmill. I dont even have a gym membership to go an use one. Oh well. If it still hurts after this, MRI and possibly another shot. There's a 90% chance this will do the trick. I hope so!

I am cringing thinking about a shot up the foot. Hang in there.
Me too, BB! I usually don't mind shots at all (I've even given them to myself many a time.) But I do skeeze out a bit at the thought of getting one in my foot. I hope this one does the trick!
Crossing fingers and toes sweetie, and pooh on the treadmill!
I'm glad nothing is broken, but that sure does stink! Hope you start improving. (((HUGS))))
