Guest guest Posted February 29, 2004 Report Share Posted February 29, 2004 Sunflower Hey thanks for the input. That's what is bothering me is that my ankle is turning in also because of this . It not only affecting my arch part- but the other bones in my foot and ankle. And is affecting my knee (pretty shot already} and hip. I've had custom orthotics for about a year now and did pretty good until just recently with this right foot. I'm a nurse too and I can look down at my foot and see where this is headed. How long do you have to wear the cast. I can handle crutches. I also have had quite a few surgeries- but not near the number you've had. I did well with both knee surgeries- it was the going back to the same work environment that didn't help. Right now I'm off work and going to apply for disability. I've done all I can do emotionally and physically. I don't have the FIGHT anymore to deal with extra pain it causes.The surgeon I'm going to in Savannah is supposed to be pretty good. I guess I can talk to him if he thinks anything else would work first. Anyways- Thanks a bunch! It is comforting to know that most people didn't have any problems, Vicki GA.
