What type of stress fractures and how long has it been? I have 2 metatarsal stress fractures for 27 months and they are also not healing. Curious what meds you have taken and when stress fracture occurred. I really would like to figure what I can do to get my foot to heal. Thank you. I know this is not easy.

@lisanne, I fractured my 2nd metatarsal in my left foot on February 1st, so it has been 7 months. I actually don't know if it has healed. As of June, it was healing. My second and third toes are still inflamed and hurt, but I can walk on my foot with cushiony shoes. There was a thread on here called Foot Osteoporosis which you might want to look at. I was on 20 mcg of Tymlos when I fractured my foot. I have now been on 40 mcg for 6 months. I think that this medicine mostly helps the spine, which is trabecular bone.
There are bone stimulators that your doctor could order for you. My doctor said that they work, but he didn't think I needed it.
I hope that this helps and that you find a way to heal your foot.
