About Me

Lisfranc fractures are extremely rare. Only 1 in the 55,000 fractures per year are lisfranc. I was diagnosed with a lisfranc mid-foot fracture of the first two metatarsals with joint displacement and ligature rupture. I decided to blog about my journey from injury, mis-diagnoisis, surgery, recovery and re-hab. I hope other lisfranc sufferers will find information and inspiration from my blog.
