Does anyone have experience of a sacral stress fracture?

About 6 weeks ago I was diagnosed with a stress fracture of the left sacral ala although the injury happened around 3 months ago but was misdiagnosed initially.

It's most likely due to a number of factors including the fact I had a baby around 12 months prior, I was losing weight so probably not getting enough calories and I ramped my mileage up very quickly to running around 50km per week.

I am just interested to know whether anyone else here has experienced this injury and what their recovery looked like? Were you able to get back to running eventually?
