IowaDeerHunter Posted December 23, 2004 Report Share Posted December 23, 2004 Well I missed you guys and this place but I am back to the computer. On Thursday I had surgery on my lower leg to correct a curved bone. Ouch! The came in the right side, (of my left leg) and cut th main bone, nerly all the way through, staightened, then they filled the gap with bone from a deceased person. after that they screwed a plate on it and closed it up. Then they went to the other side adn opened that up and cut the small leg bone and took bout 1cm of that out to keep it even. So now I am sitting here with a full leg cast on and it stinks! The only pain I am really having is some long cramps, in the back of my calf. Adn they hurt! BUt I was in the hospital for 2 1/2 days and then got to come home. I have the cast for six weeks then a leg brace for 6 weeks. Guess I cant complain to much though because this is nothing( I think) compared to what other people have to go through. well it is good to be back! Merry Christmas Everyone!

OJR Posted December 23, 2004 Report Share Posted December 23, 2004 Re: I am finally back!! I know what you are going through! The worst is over and now things will be looking up! Make sure that after the cast & brace come off, that you go to physical theraphy and get everything working again. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
