Returned to the Doc for my 2nd visit at the end of the 4th week. He removed the cast and stitches no problems. I’m now in a boot w/ a 1/2 in. heel lift. Not at 90 degrees, but I will make it. AT very tight, but that is to be expected. The 5th week PWB with crutches. The 6th week is FWB with cane. He also said when I return for my next visit to bring my other shoe with me! I thought he was conservative in his approach?
I”ve never been in a situation like this before. Finding this site has made me feel like I’m not in this alone. Just to read other post helps in the mental part of the recover process. Good luck to all, one step at a time, we will make it.
