I went ahead and went to the Doc yesterday afternoon. I just didn't want to go too long with it hurting like that, and it started swelling down to my ankle which made me nervous. I don't want anything to stand in my way of Chicago! He gave me some anti-inflammatory (mobic, I think it is called) and told me to stay off of it till Monday when I go back for him to check it out again. If it is still hurting then we will go for a MRI. He thinks it might me ligament damage? Let's hope not! He felt "crunching" when he was moving it around!?! Anyway, he told me what kind of brace thing to get it feels much better wearing that. It just hurts a little bit when I am on it a lot. Being a first grade teacher it is hard not to be on it, but I am trying to sit more during the day and put it up in a chair when I am sitting down. I will let you know. PLUS, I am moving which adds another element to the equation! :o) See y'all Sat. I won't run, but I will be at the meeting!

I can relate to your problem Stephanie. I'm in the same boat and it is very frustrating. Hang in there!
Be sure not to run if you take that Rx and feel good. You can really cause some damage. I am sure you will be out there making all of woggers looking bad soon. Good luck with the move, too. YIKES! No stress, there!
HOPE IT GETS BETTER, IVE TAKEN MOBIC BEFORE WITH SOME BACK STUFF AND IT DOES HELP ALOT,,
TAKE CARE, SEE YA SATURDAY!
I'm glad you went ahead to the dr. and I hope you are better soon! Hang in there!
