Keep eating healthy! Keep your weight up and cross train. God bless all of you who are trying to navigate this thing. That's me - the moron in the blue tank top. Back at the scene of the crime where the break occurred years ago.

Looking Back (and ahead)
Hi all. It's now been several years since my fracture. I'm still running/biking/swimming, and all is fine. I still have the snapping tendon over the (formerly) injured side, which I've learn to accept. No amount of stretching, cursing, beer drinking or otherwise seems to make a difference, and frankly - it's really not a big deal. It's just odd to be snappy on one side and not the other, right? No pain, and it really only happens every once in a while. Still scary? Yes. The iliopsoas tendon is large, and it sometimes cracks right over (?), much in the way a knuckle in your finger will crack. Scares me to death!

This has been so helpful to read, even years later. My injury is in the proximal shaft of my femur but a lot of what you describe is very similar. And I have had a terrible tightness (which stretching makes worse) in my psoas by where it attaches on my femur. Which is where my high grade stress reaction is, my doc likes to remind me it’s almost a fracture so I need to treat it as such so it doesn’t turn into one, I’m three weeks out and transitioning off the crutches. Thanks again, I’m just at the beginning of this journey
