Shortened Season

To quote Futuramas' Professor Farnsworth, "Good news, everyone".

The foot doc gave me a big thumbs up today. I'm healing well enough to start some minor exercises with my piggies and, with some luck, I can start putting some weight on my foot and get this rock removed in two more weeks.

I saw before and after x-rays, too. My foot is straight now and I've had some titanium hardware installed. The doc was pointing out the differences in the bone alignment between the two prints, stopped in mid sentence and muttered, "I just can't believe you weren't in pain. Your big toe was basically disjointed." Mrs. C did a double take when she saw the 'before' x-ray.

newrider-Been there, done that, got the t-shirt. It is no fun. Got through the Plantar crap with help from the same doc. It's blissful when one day you wake up and realize that you walked across the bed room with normal steps. Unfortunately, you're stuck with the arthritis. I just give mine the finger and carry on. Stress fractures, ouch. Not sure if I've ever had them but it wouldn't surprise me if I just 'walked it off' without knowing any better.
