Can you say it with me???? UGH UGH UGH UGH UGH I have a Grade 2 ATFL tear in my ankle~ Here is the discription~ Ligamentous injuries of the ankle are common among athletes. Inversion injuries of the ankle account for 40% of all athletic injuries. The anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) and the calcaneofibular ligament (CFL) are sequentially the most commonly injured ligaments when a plantar-flexed foot is forcefully inverted. .Ligamentous injuries of the ankle are classified into the following 3 categories, depending on the extent of damage to the ligaments:
.Grade II is a partial tear. Moderate pain and tenderness is present. Mild to moderate joint instability may be present. AND~~~ I have partially ripped My Achillies Tendon, it isn't all the way off either . . . So . . . that's whats going on with me.
I am waiting on insurence to approve the specialist . . . and hopefully I will be able to get in with him in the next few days . . .
The doc today said to me, "Well, at least its not all in your mind." UGH UGH UGH!
