I've been referred with a GP form for an x-ray for a suspected foot stress fracture to go in their drop in clinic hours (so will be Monday now).

Out of interest, if the x-ray does show a fracture, depending where and how bad I guess, would they be likely to sort it at the hospital or would it be wait for the x-ray to be sent to the GP for them to sort out?

Stress fractures usually need little more than rest but the hospital might decide than the only way to really 'rest' your foot from further stress is by putting it in a pot.
