So my update now is I can now walk and drive and have been for about 3 weeks. I have a lot of trouble walking but if you have never lost the ability to walk or drive you'll never know how bad things can be losing independence. I thought I would be 100% by now and according to the surgeon I should be by now and he wasn't nice about it.
I know two people who have broke their ankle one with plates and screws, like me, and the other without both told me 6 months just like my physical therapist said. I am also no spring chicken so healing time will take longer based on the internet
. I have a major problem at night trying to sleep lots of pain more so than during the day I am now taking a med to help me sleep but it still only helps a little some nights I only get 3 hours if I'm lucky.
I am very happy to have my independence back the biggest reason is I no longer have to ask evil AKA the wife for a ride my god you'd thought I'd had asked for another child!
Anyway that's my update and if your a doctor or surgeon I no longer like you!
