That's what I've asked ACC for (home help). I've been to the doctor, he wriggled things around a bit without drama and said he could send me for an xray if I really wanted but he suspected it was a fracture which is healing ok. It might be a very bad sprain. In either case, it's the same treatment: toes all strapped together, and I can't even wear shoes cause of the strapping.
How dumb! Anyway fractured toes take *only* 2 weeks to heal instead of 6 (for feet) (or 8 for ankles). So I rang ACC today and asked them to just extend my foot home help for two more weeks. Hopefully they don't go all silly and have to do too much paperwork. Was pretty weird having my foot up on my doctor's lap though  LOL
ETA: Yay, all approved!  -------------  |

Yay for it being approved! Glad things look like they will heal by themselves - so are you investing massively in cotton wool to wrap your self in now you seem to be so accident prone? If you have to extend again they might just come and investigae DH for spousal abuse! -------------
