Guest guest Posted October 20, 2010 Report Share Posted October 20, 2010 My Dr says there's no sign of a stress fracture on the x-ray - but they don't always show up on x-rays. I'm able to walk OK - did my 20 minute walk to the local shopping centre this morning OK. New pred side effect has just kicked in - a really strong bitter taste in my mouth all the time. Do others get this too?

Guest guest Posted October 21, 2010 Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 I'm so glad there's noticeable fracture, and you are walking ok, but do take it easy, and rest you foot when you can. It's been so long since I've been on Pred. I don't remember, I do however remember eating all the time, always hungry and thirsty, and lots of energy. but don't over do:) MarlaJust one day at a time, That's all God ask of us. for there never really is a tomorrow, as that too is just today:) My Dr says there's no sign of a stress fracture on the x-ray - but they don't always show up on x-rays.

Guest guest Posted October 21, 2010 Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 My wonderful Dr actually called yesterday to talk about my foot (he's a sports physician) - he said he was checking for avascular necrosis, as well as the stress fracture. Thankfully it wasn't present. (It usually just happens in the hip, but he was being extra careful with me.) I'm to ice my foot for 20 min a day and use Voltaren (anti-inflammatory) cream on it too. If it doesn't get better over time, we'll do an ultrasound. Hopefully it's just a tendon or ligament that's been damaged. The excess energy is a novelty for me, I've cleaned and de-cluttered almost every closet and cupboard in the house, and every room, in the past 2 weeks, and am seriously considering taking on some housecleaning work for friends to earn a little extra cash while this manic phase lasts, LOL! My house has never been this organised or clean! I'm seeing my GP this morning about my high blood sugars - most days I'm going over 8 at least once (the Aussie scale for normal BGLs is 4-8). Hoping I can avoid insulin :/ Although if I have to, I'll have a better understanding of my daughter's situation (she has Type 1 Diabetes, and is on an insulin pump). xo .................................................................................\ ........................ http://sutherland-studios.com.au Dummies author : http://tinyurl.com/CodesandCryptograms http://tinyurl.com/WordSearches .................................................................................\ ........................ > I'm so glad there's noticeable fracture, and you are walking ok, but do take it easy, > and rest you foot when you can.
