FINALLY HAVE A FOOT DIAGNOSIS (below).

Looks like its mostly healed and it wont be long til I can run again. Caused by a small bump in mileage (but a bump nonetheless), 500-mile shoes, and aggressive orthotics (green superfeet) putting a lot of stress on the cuboid bone. Plus, failure to stretch/roll my calves (or indeed anything) for several weeks.

Should probably have healed a long time ago, but I delayed going to the doctor, and then should have just had an MRI straight away. Instead the treatment we were doing (different orthotics, taping, running on it a bit, aggressive massage) etc, was probably aggraving it/delaying healing. Lessons for next time, definitely!

4mm recent appearing stress fracture of the distal plantar aspect of the cuboid
at the roof of the cuboid tunnel for peroneus longus, with localised
tendinopathy and tenosynovitis of peroneus longus, of mild degree, without tear.
Thickening interosseous ligament between the lateral cuneiform and the cuboid
adjacent to the stress fracture.

You must be plotting your comeback race. It'll be great to have you back running - and I don't mean pool running. ;)

Not that a stress fx is ever good news, but it's good that you have a definitive diagnosis now and will be able to run again soon :-)
