Also I do credit a large part of my healing to doing the BMAC injections. It was pricey but worth it.

Yo just wanted to say I was in the same boat. I even made a post about it a few months ago. I had a hairline fracture that I spent months healing and even as I ramped up running volume the pain was only at a 1-2 out of 10 but I was convinced when I got my MRI it was going to show something was still going on. Came back completely clean. (Of course now I'm having sesamoiditis in my other foot but that's a different story.)

Curious about how you feel your climbing shoes contributed to the injury - how much were you downsizing? Or do you think it was more of a fit issue?
I first noticed my sesamoid pain after a rock climbing trip and I've become increasingly convinced that the shoes I wore on that trip were a huge part of the issue. Slightly too narrow in the toe box, but mostly they were just really soft and not supportive enough for my use case (high volume of tall single-pitch lead routes over several days).
Have you started climbing again since you got the good news?
