I'm not really sure what I should be looking at, but I bet it's painful. What exactly happened?

Fiberglass foot cast? How'd you manage to break your foot? Drink more milk.

Yep, 2 of them. One of them is broken into about 6 pieces. The boat is in my office. Just had to use the window for lighting. My daughter was out in the driveway jumping rope and me being the 18 year old flexible guy that I am NOT, decided that I could do it too. Barefoot on cement. Boy was I wrong (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

Nice sheet rock screws.
I was out skate boarding with my son and his freind yesterday. I have some history in boarding so they were out showing me new tricks. I will remember those pictures next time they ask me to try doing an Ollie.

Sorry about the foot, Allen. I fell off a skateboard that belonged to a friend's son and thought I had broken my elbow. It reminded me that I wasn't as young and agile as I once was. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Geoff, Those screws remind me of my girlfriends heel bone which she fractured about four years ago. They put several screws in it to pull the chunks back together. The x-rays showed them at various angles making you wonder why they couldn't put them in straight! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

While we were consulting the surgeon he advised her to begin taking a heavy dose calcium supplement and commented to me that it wouldn't hurt if I did too. Three years later I pass a massive kidney stone which lodges in the duct from the kidney to bladder and has to be removed by a scope starting at the urethrea. Oh, yeah, lots of fun. I ask my docter if there was any connection with the calcium supplement and he said maybe... <_< I checked out clean in my follow-up x-ray recently. Now to track down that surgeon...

He should have told you that you have to drink a gallon of water to go with those calcium suppliments. That's the only way your body can get rid of the excess stuff that causes stones. I had a friend who had stones. They broke them up with an ultrasound pulse cannon. They passed without all that intrusive stuff.

The position of my stone prevented them from using the ultra sound. They did have to break it up using the scope and remove it in pieces. That thing was big. I don't know how many scope extraction trips it took, but the next day it felt like they had done 500 laps! Then they left this thing called a stint behind with a long string attached to make sure scar tissue didn't close up anything. That had to be removed about 10 days later. Uh, Doc, whats this string for? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon8.gif)

OUCH!!! Did they start testing for oxalate and uric acid levels as well? Might have been the calcium suppliments, but I'm sure you want to cover all the bases rather than having it occur again. Drink 8 glasses of water a day religiously. Even more if you drink alcohol. Dehydration is the major cause.
