How badly is your fracture, did you need surgery? My fracture is a Type 3- non-displaced and no surgery needed. My doctor didn’t cast it, just a large foam brace. Was NWB for 2 months, then went to partial weight bearing over the course of 3-4 weeks, don’t remember for sure. Fracture happened on April 3rd, and I was FWB starting on the 30th of June. But, that does sound like too long a time.
