Both good and bad news, but the good outweighs the bad! You have to work through the pain, but at least you CAN and will work through it! Hopefully the pain will get less and less, and at least be manageable eventually. I think of you so often, just aching for you. I know what it is like to work through the pain.

When I began to walk on my healing broken/injured foot, it was very painful, but I was determined to walk as though I had no pain at all and no injury at all, because I felt it was the only way I was going to avoid the future pain of having my whole body be off kilter and out of balance if I just gave into the pain and walked with a limp. I am convinced that that was what helped me recover to the maximum extent possible. My husband walked two miles with me every day. I just wish I could be there beside you and help the way that he did with me!
