They don't see a need to X-ray and, to be honest, there may have been a chip 
some weeks ago ... but they're not going to give it any different treatment 
whether X-rayed or not;  and, seeing as I can't get to the hospital myself, 
I'm just stuck in and will try to make the best of it.  I can only trust 
that, because of this extra problem, maybe the heel will somehow have a 
better chance to get right ...
