best3444 Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Sorry to hear Chris. Just hang tough and fight through it. You'll be ok. If you were an athlete your career would be basically over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris- Posted August 8, 2023 Author Share Posted August 8, 2023 Two weeks removed from surgery; all has gone well so far. I'll get stitches out next Thursday, then in late August start to put weight on it, progressing by 25% every week until I'm fully weight bearing in early October. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, that seems like a long time to not be able to put weight on it for something so random in how it happened. So like, when it heals, will you be back to normal or do you have to be careful it doesn’t happen again or what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris- Posted September 19, 2023 Author Share Posted September 19, 2023 Started walking last week, third follow up yesterday. Suffered something of a setback: X-ray shows one of the surgical anchors dislodged and is just floating around. The surgeon placed four and the clinical evaluation was positive, so if I’m lucky the other three healed fine and it just means more time in the boot; worst case scenario is another surgery, but I won’t know until I get an ultrasound next week. I’d be lying if I said I took the news super well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
