Was?

Can I use both tenses? Does either choice make a difference?

I was relieved when my foot doctor told me that my injury is/was nothing serious.

kazupocketmonster Does either choice make a difference? If you're still hobbling around on an injured foot, then either tense can be used. If you are talking about an injury that happened last year, and is fully healed, then use the past tense.
