An X-ray today confirmed that my swollen, purple finger isn't broken, so that's positive. Although I just went for my first wheelchair ride, and there's something wrong with my back :'(
Ahhh, sorry to hear. Tough gig :(

Calcaneus is the heel bone. With your photo looking so similar to mine that's probably your dislocation. The bone above that is the talus which is what I fractured. Good chance that's one of the breaks.

Where are you going for surgery?

In terms of painkillers, I found that a combination of OxyContin, endone and panadiene forte works best!
