The surgery went extremely well. I was at a different hospital this time Holy Cross surgical center in Mission Hills CA for insurance reasons. Everyone here was amazing and so wonderfully nice! Dr. K took out both fixators and put the injection and pin in my left foot. He also released the tendons in both of my toes and put a small wire through the tip of my right toe. He said that it was wanting to angle upward and I will keep that in and get it removed with the other pin in 6-8 weeks. I'm in barely any pain. Only my left ankle kinda feels sore. Other than that I'm still pretty numbed up so I'll do an update later on that. I have a follow up appointment with him on Monday so I'll do another post then with pictures of my feet unwrapped and an update on pain. For shoes to wear he mentioned that I get some stiff shoes that don't bend much and wear those for a while. So I went out and bought a nice pair of Timberland boots that are really stiff but cute to wear as well. (:
This is the pin through my left foot you can still see where it's not healed completely. |
