Body: My left foot is still uncomfortable, but wearing different shoes today seems to be helping. I think tomorrow I'll try wearing my stompy boots, which are a little much for work, but should give my foot and ankle even more support.

Body: The pain in my left ankle is not only still there, but it's spread down to my toes and up my calf. It feels like one big charlie horse.
