    Doctors ....

    I was playing basketball at my church about 3 weeks ago. I went up for a rebound and when I come down felt a pop in my left knee followed by lots of pain. I went to the doctor the next day and described my symptoms and had x rays taken, he said I just irritaded it and come back for an MRI if it got worse. Well it got worse so Tuesday I had the MRI done and today they called and told me I broke my leg. So I have been walking around for 3 weeks with a broke leg no wonder I have been hurting.

    How did a doc look at the xrays the first time and not see the break? I guess there was too much swelling?

    Hope you have a quick recovery.

      It happens, they make mistakes a lot. Good thing is they caught it the second time. I pray you get healed fast bro.

        The Xray simply may not have revealed a fracture. It happens.

          yeah it happens I'm hoping since it's already been 3 weeks they wont put me in a cast. That will mess up my Halloween plans.

            I assume its a broken fibula? I broke my Tibia and Fibula when I was 11. My leg was bending in the middle of my shin like there was a joint there. No way they could have mis-diagnosed that lol.
