not again..

oh. and i think running is out for awhile again.

i either have shinsplints in a weird location or a stress fracture in my tibia.

Usually shin splints are tibialis anteior pulling away from the tibia. This feels more like soleus or gastrocnemius pulling away. Which would make sense- since those muscles get tight and swollen.
but im nervous for it to be a fracture because i can push ONE particular spot that hurts more than the rest.
i dont know how that happened though because i haven't been running. i tried again today and lasted 4 whole minutes. my shin hurt too badly.
i have a random sharp pain in my left medial thigh, too.

i need to go back to the sports dr.
i don't know what all of these weird things are.



i dont want more fractures. it doesn't make sense! it simply does not make sense.

sorry your legs are still bothering you. i know that's frustrating/stressful/upsetting. it would piss me off.
glad that things are going well in other ways, and the planning of the wedding, it's still weird for me to read about that here!

it's frustrating to the point of tears.

i'm a runner. and runners run. it's that simple. nothing else compares to running. i'm beyond pissed off, at this point.
I've done everything right. And I'm still not able to go running.

But what more can I do? Seriously. I've followed every damn rule that was thrown at me, and for what? Nothing, apparently.
