1st post op visit!
Ok, so I saw the doc for the first time (12 days) since surgey…Better than I expected. Took off plaster cast and and checked out her work. She said everything looks great, good color, took out both stiches and put me back into a lighter plaster cast. Here’s the interesting part, this cast comes off for good next Wed. I’m going into two shoes!!! One shoe will have a .5 inch lift on the outide and .25 inch on the inside. Has anybody else done this? Doc says I will still need crutches for another 2-3 weeks, very excited! I still might be golfing July4.
PS
Big thanks to my wife for everything!!

19 days to a pair of shoes is mightyquick I have not seen or heard that. The articles posted do show some FWB at that time but ususally with a boot.
Just be careful and guard that leg from getting hit. The boot gives me comfort from that. I am going to shoes soon outside.
You should be able to golf by the 4th. Starting hitting a few of those plastic practice balls when you get to FWB around the house or park.
Good luck
