Shatter certain bones in foot during grand mal seizure.
Find out about this at urgent care after walking on a broken foot for a week.
Get told to go to the emergency room to get a cast placed on said foot.
Be told by said emergency room that they… can not put a cast on it, at a hospital…
Get referred to orthopedic surgery.
Get told the day before casting that the referral has to come from one’s primary care physician.
Am in the process of being assigned a new one because old primary care physician abruptly retired.
Manage to get fit in with them to get a referral from them to orthopedic surgery.

Still not casted. Walking on a broken foot with a boot and crutches when I can manage to use them.

It’s managed to take several days due to the messiness of the American healthcare system, but I will formally have a cast put on my foot soon if all continues to go as swimmingly as it… is not. Why the hospital could not do this when urgent care was insistent on this was, and remains, beyond me, but it is what it is. We’re also talking pins and rods at some point because I managed to shatter the bone in my foot that I broke. So by that I technically mean bones if we’re using elementary school math, which makes it funnier.

Expect a longer, more comprehensive update about this in the coming days.

I’m backdating posts in here because this injury has more or less laid me out on my back end.
