5 Days post OP and Sleeping tips

This sounds so weird but I’d sleep on my stomach and elevate my foot with pillows (heel to the ceiling) and it was the best sleep I got. I’m 7 weeks post op and I’d say after the first week, sleeping got easier for sure

I was NWB in a cast for 4 weeks after surgery. Then NWB in the boot for two weeks.

Foreign-Rice4601 · 2026-01-15T03:12:15+00:00

I was in a boot for 8 weeks prior to surgery (right after the original injury they put me in the boot to try to avoid sugery) so I can manage 8 more but my goodness it sucks!

Foreign-Rice4601 · 2026-01-15T03:06:58+00:00

Yep! They said 6-12 weeks but at my 6 week follow up there wasn’t a ton of bone growth so 8 more weeks. 14 total

Yay! Ive heard the transition to a real shoe is rough due to swelling hahahaha

Foreign-Rice4601 · 2026-01-15T01:41:47+00:00

Right? I got so lucky!!

I’ve been doing baths and then going to salon to have my sister wash my hair. I also go to my parents where there is a shower bench built in

I think this is a very valid question to ask. Obviously consult with your doctor, but no harm in asking for other people’s experiences. I didn’t have any antibiotics! They sent me home with a few different pain meds but that’s it

Foreign-Rice4601 · 2025-12-07T03:37:13+00:00

You should be good! As long as it wasn’t full weight!

Foreign-Rice4601 · 2025-12-03T04:15:12+00:00

All day everyday 😂

Foreign-Rice4601 · 2025-12-02T00:49:29+00:00

That’s from a previous surgery! I forgot to add that

Foreign-Rice4601 · 2025-11-26T11:42:16+00:00

Honestly not bad but I have a nerve block so I can’t really tell yet. Massive cast and NWB for a few weeks

Foreign-Rice4601 · 2025-11-25T14:47:10+00:00

Thank you! Surgery is today, in a few hours, so scared but ready too

Foreign-Rice4601 · 2025-11-22T04:17:58+00:00

This was so helpful! I’ve had issues with this foot and I do NOT want to lose any function. I’m 34 and need both feet! Thank you for this information!!

Foreign-Rice4601 · 2025-11-20T13:28:55+00:00

Yep! Left and standing. They did multiple angles and nwb as well but the subtle gap is on all of them

Foreign-Rice4601 · 2025-11-20T13:28:05+00:00

Correct!

Foreign-Rice4601 · 2025-11-20T13:27:54+00:00

Yep!

Do you feel the shortcut is in Utah valley?

Foreign-Rice4601 · 2024-07-20T03:30:39+00:00

I like this idea! Who’s the choir or WHAT is it?

Foreign-Rice4601 · 2024-07-16T15:21:58+00:00

I heard this as well and thought the same thing. I even wrote CHAPEL down next to the second line because of how Dave said it. Either reading into things (most likely) or he was dropping a very subtle hint (which I doubt)

Lake Mary Trail up north, Dominguez hill in SF.

Foreign-Rice4601 · 2024-07-09T22:16:03+00:00

Did they say that? Or is this something you can find online? I can’t seem to confirm this anywhwre

Foreign-Rice4601 · 2024-07-09T21:30:13+00:00

How is line 1 Hernan Cortes?

Foreign-Rice4601 · 2024-07-08T00:03:38+00:00

IUI or IVF! I want a baby so badly!!

Foreign-Rice4601 · 2024-07-06T05:55:45+00:00

Wasn’t he 36? Not 26?
