New Sorry, thought the question was rhetorical
Yes, we still use them.
And I don't know if the short ones would be better.
We could try.

MRI is tomorrow, hard cast goes on after that.

And while we may be in the barbarical USA, one
thing I notice is we tend to have MRI availability
for non-life threatening issues far faster than
what I've heard about in Canae.

Any north of the border care to chime in to tell me
if this is BS?

New Yep, it's true
'course, we don't have any families going bankrupt over medical costs, so I guess it's a wash.

New MRI verbal came back
Ankle surgeon was very sad.

Listed about 1/2 dozen things, mostly bad, things like tendons seperated from bones. Bruised bones. Variety of tears.

Put in a hard cast for now, set at an angle that makes it 100% impossible to walk, even by accident.

Give it a couple of weeks to see if it starts to resolve.

If not, the surgery means pullin the tendons down, drilling holes though various bones, pulling them through and affixing them in place.

I think I'm going to forward the MRI study to the original Dr. and put a simple cover letter on it.

How about:

Yo, Fuckwad!
