Ok I haven't written in some time now , because I totally forgot I had this already :) Since my last entry, alot of things have happened . We are rolling with the recession, as are alot of other folks, I have had my ankle fused in Feb, and I start working for the government tomorrow, with a cast on my leg, doing a job that requires constant walking. I've been walking on it for the past 3 months, with the cast on it, had to have them stiffen it up asy visit, and I cant wait for that first day I can walk with little or no pain at all. I know its going to hurt, and i accept it. I just don't want to be lumped into that " your in pain, so you need pain meds all the time" type of treatment. I guess when I go to the Doc on the 7th, I'll get my monthly " I can not believe you are walking on it" lecture, and hopefully, a bit of assistance with the pain. I dont want more, I just want to be able to get up and take a step rihgt away, instead of trying to slowly put pressure on it til it's ok, I can deal with his,and after a few steps, I got it.
