I didn't get much more detail tbh, tho more than previously, possibly because the Dr (a totally different one from any I'd seen before) had a medical student with him too.
Told him about the short leg and he measured and said hmmm. Then he checked my hips for movement and said that's all good, but I will probably need a heel raise/insert thing and to see the podaitrist about that.
On the RSD he said yes, i do have a mild case of that but lots of physio and working teh foot should clear it up.
Um... showed me the xrays and said it has all healed up very nicely and that I really did break it good and proper. Also explained WHY i had the pins in that were took out (to keept it all in place to let the ligaments heal properly and not all loose, which I didn't know before!). He also said the swelling might take a year to go properly. So i think i need to go shoe shopping ;p
