Experienced a really huge "toe-jam" on a piece of furniture 3+ months ago. First podiatrist kept telling me it was a broken toe, and that the (extremely) pain was to be expected, but I have a really high pain tolerance. After several months, went to 2nd opinion, ultimately had MRI due to continued pain. Just told that it was a non-union break right at the break line next to the foot. We are going to see what kind of coverage I have for the stimulator device...my concern is that this is a hint of things to come as I am trying to tolerate osteopenia medication therapy, and this is the first broken bone in my 57 years. Should I be doing anything else? I'd prefer non-invasive, but do not want to miss out on a healing "window" and mess up my foot/gait etc for the remaining years I hope to be around.
