66%, close enough

So it's two fractures, not three. Also, both are in my fibula (smaller, non-weigh bearing leg bone).

The third fracture was from a basketball injury 12+ years ago and apparently nothing to worry about.
They removed the temporary cast and I am now sporting a boot that looks like something the bionic man would wear.The good news it the boot is held together with Velcro so I can take it off and shower!!

I have to keep this on for six weeks and use crutches for the first four weeks. There goes my golf game(s)!I have a follow up x-ray in two weeks to make sure everything is setting correctly.

That's a quick update, back to the sofa!!!
