Bloody Leg!
Physio came today.
No sex for 6 weeks!
Not that I was expecting any, but it's nice to have the option.
And then I'll probably get a pamphlet that explains the movement restrictions, which I suppose I can hand to any prospective Mr. Lucky I meet just after I've explained about brittle bones so he knows double check when I start moaning in case he needs to call an ambulance because I have snapped like a twig.
That totally wouldn't give a bloke a complex.
I don't think the above goes on my OKCupid profile.
The 6 week thing is really just because that's when I'm next reviewed by the orthos and we can see what them bones are actually doing. No one expects the orthos to have any knowledge or opinions on that. However,
I can haz sectional intocuss now pls?
will definitely be on the list of questions to ask.

In other news about the leg thing, I need to be a little bit more cautious than I am. As we agreed today, my condition is a bit of a problem because weight bearing stimulates bone turnover which is good, but alendronate-induced brittle bones appear to need to not weight-bear. I am risking further stress fractures if I proceed too quickly. I really need to remember this next time I decide to try one crutch because two is too complicated.
