Week whatever
It’s been a while since Ive written an entry. At first things were proceeding along fine and I didn’t have anything interesting to say. Then a couple of weeks ago, I was walking. In Home Depot at a normal pace, when I felt a slight pull/tear in my good foot. I went back to my surgeon and she ordered an MRI. That took a couple of weeks because of Insurance issues so I finally had it yesterday. Today my doctor asked me to come right in. She said the report said I had a lot of scar tissue and a tear and she was concerned about letting it go to a full tear (I had extensive repair on the first one because my original doctor misdiagnosed it). She felt it and said it was less swollen than last time. I (stupid me) said, “yeah, Ive even been able to do a heel raise” and she said “oh, lets see”. Big mistake.
Now, I’m sure it would have happened eventually but I got off the exam table, bent the knee on my repaired leg and went to stand on my toes when “Boom, POP” the loudest pop. And surgery for my good foot scheduled for next Friday.
I’m not a cryer but I’m sooooooo depressed. I had/have a trip to Florida planned for this Sunday. (She said I could go if I wear the boot but I don’t know) and My dream trip to San Francisco and Napa Valley was planned for March 16th. Seems unlikely that I’ll be able to make it.
