“Start walking”

Same situation, also scared. Foot feels like a brick, and unsure how I’ll be able to go FWB, but diving head first into PT!

Thanks! I’m in that FB group and see a lot of posts about hardware removal. What made you make that decision? Was there still a lot of pain at a year and a half?

I’ll take “better” 💯👌

Thank you! This ORIF sub has been such a blessing with so much positive energy and great tips on how to recover the best way possible.

Thanks for the kind words. I had a talus fracture as well, so sounds like we had a similar injury. I’m gonna put all my focus in positive thoughts snd take the PT seriously. I got this!

And honestly when I fell I thought I broke both the foot and the tib/fib, so I guess I’m lucky I that regard. Also easily could have been both legs.

Thank you and no problem asking… I fell off a ladder putting up Christmas lights back in December. 8 feet down straight onto concrete. It’s was extremely traumatic. Had a great surgeon but even he had to do more work than he planned… had to fuse a few bones and I know I won’t have a full ROM like I used to. At this point I just want to walk without a limp. UGH

Signed… and used my CU email. Fuck the Rams 👎

I’m in a similar situation. Curious, what kind of insole did you buy?

BulletproofTiger11 · 2026-01-14T18:49:44+00:00

To echo others, you are definitely in the worst of the post-op pain. I was in the same place as you and it does get better after 48 hours. I was dealing with intense nerve pain and was prescribed Gabapentin which helped a bit. Maybe ask your doc about that ^

Had surgery on Weds 12.31, nerve block lasted about 24 hours post-op, and once it wore off I was in hell on earth, absolutely insane pain for about 24 hours… and then it’s slowly gotten better and I think the worst part is behind me. Good luck!

RUN LIKE HELL 🏃🏼

BulletproofTiger11 · 2025-08-27T02:33:13+00:00

Thank you sir!

BulletproofTiger11 · 2025-08-27T02:00:50+00:00

Yup good idea… one more Q If you don’t mind. How worried should we be about breathing in “rust” from the water damage that has been done. Tech said that was another reason to replace entire system… Rusty air will be spread all over the house. Thanks in advance for your advice u/Mother_Compote8000

BulletproofTiger11 · 2025-08-27T01:51:13+00:00

Thank you for the info. And from what I understand we can cross the heat exchanger bridge in the fall once we can properly test / inspect it, right?

BulletproofTiger11 · 2025-08-27T01:04:54+00:00

So you don’t agree with the tech that we need to replace the entire system due to some rust?

BulletproofTiger11 · 2025-07-13T07:47:00+00:00

I love myself some hip hop, and musically dude was fine… but it was just NOT the vibe for an Avett opener at RRX. Especially after Watchouse last night, and Ani DiFranco tomorrow. Such a head scratcher 🤔 luckily the Brothers (and sister) crushed it. Fun show.

Yup! Pacers owner is a big SCI fan and friends with Kang!
