...do I have to start back at the 10%/week increments?
The doc gave me the OK to start w/1 mile per day for the first week (7 MPW) and 2 miles per day for the second week (14 MPW). Obviously I'd like to get back up to 45-50 MPW ASAP, but not at the risk of another stress fracture.
Can I do 3 mi/day for the 3rd week (21 MPW)? 4 mi/day for the 4th week (28 MPW)? That seems like it's ramping up quite a bit faster than 10% per week.

I guess 7 to 14 is the biggest jump, comparatively speaking. I really would ask your Dr, or a sports therapist/physiotherapist.
I think you are meant to plateau every once in a while whilst ramping it up like that - i.e. don't go straight 7-14-21-28-35-42-49 increasing every single week.
