Well, I was feeling good today and decided to go for a run. Let's take a look at the next few hours following that:
Kim: "I don't know, Doc. I was running, felt a pop in my heel, and went down in the middle of the road. Now I'm having trouble walking on my left foot. It's kinda just hanging off the end of my leg..."
Dr. Gibbs: "Hmmmmmmm...Let's take a look at that MRI. Oh, I see the problem. You have several tears in your achilles tendon. I am going to put you in a cast, give you a cane and some Percocet, then send you to an orthopedist for an evaluation. In my opinion, you won't need repair surgery, but you'll be in the cast anywhere from 3-6 months."
What a friggin' two weeks it's been. Thank Gawd for the Percocet.
