I dont know if anyone else feels like this but iam really lacking confidence to try and put more weight on my foot.
Orthotics told me to put 10 kgs for the first coupla of day then increase by 10 kgs each time until i am fully weight bearing, but i cant seem to stop thinking that i am gonna re tear - is this normal or do i need to speak to someone. the Specialist told me that i could FWB when i was ready.
I am just sick of using crutches at the moment. Am i being impatient?

I Had my cast taken off today and went into a cam walker boot. PWB with crutches.
First thing i did was come home and have a spa bath, that felt great.
Scar looks really good, just a few scabs to come off, leg looks horrid - scaly and very hairy!!!. Still have some swelling at the end of the day, but its really good.
Havent started physio yet but i have been doing some simply flexs while in bed, just pointing toes up and down and rotating my ankle. Now i know what a car feels like with no oil.
