ulgh the ankle thing. I am familiar with and hate the ankle thing. I think it’s the only thing so far that has made me actually fall in a way I can’t catch myself. It’s kind of scary.

Yes.  Exactly.  I just twist the ankle under me and hit the ground when this happens and it’s not the first time in the past few months.  I sprained my other ankle in the exact same spot, falling the exact same way.  My ankle twists under me, and then my foot gets injured.  It’s not my ankle that gets injured, it’s my foot itself, on the side, near the arch.  I feel like I have the same injury now as I did a few months ago on the other foot, just much less severe.  (The other one swelled up like a balloon and looked almost like a break and I couldn’t walk on it, but it turned out to be a nasty sprain.)

What really sucked was that when I’d fallen, my ankle stayed twisted under me in a way that was clearly injuring it more every second, and I couldn’t get up without help.  Luckily there was literally a big guy standing right next to me who pulled me up again.
