Allan, I don't know that much about casts. Probably by soaking and manipulation you can crumble it away. I just know when my sister broke her arm, and one of my school mates broke his arm in both cases the cast was cut off. I think a doctor would have some special scissor pliers--surgical steel--for this task. Have you asked the doctor to cut off the cast and put on a lighter one? That's something commonly done.
