If it makes you feel any better, I have "glass" ankles and have had both of the dang things in casts due to strectching of the tendon and ligaments. The tendon stretch was most scary... and took longest to heal. I hate casts! Specially when your leg swells at the end of the day and pushes your shin bone into the cast. OW!

Well, good luck and I hope things go alright so you can get outta that cast soon.
