Pain In Leg, Xray Shows No Broken Bones, Had Kidney Transplant, Immunosuppressant Medicines, Water Pills

went to the hospital emergency room last night. I was in alot of pain I thought the top of my right foot and big toe was broken. xray showed no broken bones. I have a very high pain tollerence. What could be causing so much pain that would make a person think that they have a broken bone in the foot area? Medical history kidney transplant, immune supressant meds, water pill, potasium
