5 days post op and no real problems. I am experiencing a line of numbness across my foot about 1/2 inch from the base of my toes. Has anyone else experienced this? Next appointment is September 5 to remove stitches.

Surgery successful. The pain started in the middle of the night after the block wore off(which was a good option). With sedation and the leg block there were no anethesia side effects and I wasn’t groggy all day. I’ve been keeping it elevated with ice. Thanks for all the encouraging words, it really helped me get through all the pre surgery days and surgery itself. This is great group and I’m blessed to have found it and become a part of it. Thanks, Marty
