    Stay on them about it, David! Some years ago I broke the toe next to my big toe when I smashed it against the door frame. Doc didn't order an x-ray, and said there wasn't much to do other than to tape it to the other toes and wear loose fitting shoes for a few weeks. Since it was springtime, I just wore sandals and continued that thru the summer. Trouble is, when the weather cooled and I had to put a shoe on, it was so painful that I could barely stand the shoe for more than an hour or so. Come to find out - the break never healed, and I had to have 2 pins surgically implanted in my toe. Don't let it get to that!!! Keep calling till you get an answer, and if you have to be a PITA - then be one!

    Pomtzu, since the doctors are here in my facility here at Concordia, I'm keeping on their collective butts to find out what's happening!

    Sending good thoughts that nothing is broken and your foot will get better. Take care!
