I'm in a boot for at least two weeks, and can't put any weight on it at all. Have to keep it up (toes above nose the doc said) for 48 hours. Docs and the hospital were great. I was at the University of Utah Orthopedic clinic, and wound up being worked on by the head of the ankle/foot department. A really good staff, I can't thank them enough. Very professional group that made me comfortable with the process start to finish. I'll happily do whatever they say I need to do in order to get better.
