Fat loss?? Am I imagining it?

I tore my ankle ligaments 3 weeks ago today, pretty horrendous injury and still about 30% off recovery but I believe the BPC has helped massively. I have been on 250mcg a day since a day after it happened.

However, not only do I feel like it has helped my ankle, I feel it has helped me lose fat? I am slightly leaner than I was and a pound lighter, this is considering I have went from 15,000 steps a day to about 3000 if that.

Is there any evidence this could be related to the BPC or just a strange coincidence?

What have I done? Help please! Docs not much help.

So rolled my ankle playing football, heard and felt a crunch and the balloon like lump on the first pics is minutes after!

A&E gave me an x-ray and said they couldn’t see a fracture but hard to tell with all the swelling. They gave me a moon boot and basically sent me on my way. The other photos are as it is today, a week later.

I visited my doctor who said it looks like a ligament tear and will take 3/4 weeks to heal to a walking standard, 6-8 for running. I asked about a secondary x ray but he said it wasn’t needed!

I can walk with my boot but not too far or the pains too much. I sit all day with it raised. When I put my foot down I get a crazy intense sensation of blood rushing to my foot and it actually feels like it’s going to explode. The outside of my ankle is still untouchable around the bone, pain is crazy to touch.

Is this ‘just’ ligaments or should I push for more answers?

I have never had an injury as bad as this before.

Help!
