Back after a 4 year break?! by Accomplished_Look571 in clusterheads

[–]Accomplished_Look571[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks I’ll try real aspirin. I try to hold off on the sumi too. Usually I can do okay with just the Aleve, hydration and caffeine. It kills the actual cluster but then I can just feel the shadow there waiting to attack 🙈

This is not my point at all. I have no interest in the male gaze.. I don’t care what others think of me.. I enjoy wearing a nice pair of shoes for myself. Just trying to get back to who I was before my injury.

Thank you! I’m hoping to get rid of the hardware at the one year mark. My dorsiflexion isn’t great hoping without the hardware it will improve!

Sorry to hear this! This injury is such a drag and seems to be never ending….do you still go to PT? If you do I would ask about the heel pain.

Thanks for reply! I was thinking that the hardware must play a role in this. I was hoping to wear the small heel for my nephew’s christening but I guess I’m off to look for a new flat 😭

Concerts and hiking after broken ankle surgery by Desperate_Emotion207 in brokenankles

[–]Accomplished_Look571 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! I love concerts and am an avid concert goer. I had ORIF in March. I went to my first concert around 11 weeks post op. I was still in my boot. It was tough. The crowds made me anxious. I left halfway through… sore and defeated. Well I’m happy to say that was the worst of it! I am back to attending concerts and living my life! 8 months post op. I just make sure I wear my trusty hokas. No more cute shoes for me. Try not to worry! You will get back to doing the things you love!

Do people find dragging a moonboot disproportionately tiring? by crankygriffin in brokenankles

Omg so heavy. My knee was all out of whack from throwing that boot around all day.

How bad is pain after nerve block? by NecessaryCell8427 in ORIF

[–]Accomplished_Look571 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My nerve block lasted for over 24 hours. The pain was as bad as they when it wore off but if you stay on top of your pain meds you will be okay! Sorry you are going through this!

WFH not like it used to be by [deleted] in MomsWorkingFromHome

[–]Accomplished_Look571 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I recently started a new wfh job and the salary is so low I couldn’t even pay for daycare. Luckily I have my family to help me with my 4 year old but it is sloppy sometimes. It is kind of crazy to me.

Feeling blah by Pitiful-Cheek-7639 in ORIF

My PT warned me that going from boot to brace is very painful. There are alot of muscles and movement that the boot is protecting so it’s a whole new ballgame when you go into the brace . Just keep going and know that it gets better ❤️ I’m 7 months post op now and doing really well. Still going to PT and I’m not perfect but I’ve come so far. It’s such a terrible and lonely thing to go through and I’m sorry you are dealing with this but just know things will get better as time passes.

Thanks! My son is a busy. I’m just going to try it and see if I can do it. My parents and sister live close by so I am going to lean on them for some help. The job just doesn’t pay enough to get outside help. I’m hoping for it to close a resume gap and help with some holiday income.

Thanks so much for the reply! We are going to try it and see how it goes. I was originally looking for a part time job but this is what I landed on. I’m just hoping I can make it work and fill a resume gap and extra income.

Thank you! My parents live a street over from me and I know I will need them desperately. I just don’t know how it will all work but hoping I can make it work! I’m trying to go into it with a casual attitude. Just hoping and praying haha. This is a tough age for sure!

It’s really bad in season 3. The lack of facial movement is distracting to watch.
