These are the pins that were in my ankle. The quarter is there for size comparison. The two smaller pins were in my talus bone and the two longer ones were through my heel.
All four pins in my foot.
So I got to my post-op appointment on Wednesday all happily. Got a good clean bill of health to wear the boot and to stop the crutches. I was more worried about getting my pins back that I failed to ask questions about returning to work and driving but thought nothing would change if I got the boot on I could return to work. Well get home to find out that I CANNOT drive OR work for four weeks. When I transition into a shoe I cn return to work and drive. Right now I am in a boot and it’s for my safety that I am in it.
When I got home i tried to take a shower. Almost fell though so now I’m scared of trying again. My foot itches where the scabs are from the surgery and where they took out the stitches.
I’m trying to remain positive but I am going stir crazy with not working and and worrying about finances and how I’m supposed to pay my insurance if I’m not making an income.
Weight-wise, I don’t know currently what I am at. Today is where I am watching what I eat and I’ll begin to print out the exercises from my Pinterest page. I had a bagel this morning, it was 240 calories with butter on it. I also had coffee with it as well. I’m currently drinking water and hoping to get in as much water as possible.
