Hey ya'll! I wanted to let you know my surgery went great and I got to come home from the hospital even earlier then expected.
My doctor said my ankle was a real mess, it had all sorts of bone spurs and cysts and it's a good thing we got to it when we did. They re-broke the bone, took out the bad joint, cleaned out all the yicky stuff from around the joint, fused the bones together, and then put two screws in to hold it in place.
I was in the hospital for about 9 hours when they decided I was doing so well that I could come home early. :-)
Since I have been home I have to take my pain medicine every four hours, and my body has gotten on a pretty odd schedule of sleeping for four hours, and waking up for one. I am currently up to take my medicine and thought I would get on CT and let you all know how I'm doing.
Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers that have been sent my way, I appreciate them more then I can explain!
