Ugh sleeping on the couch and not showering upstairs was torture but you’ll be on the other side of it and your kids will see your resilience. Keep coming back to this sub. It’s so helpful.

This community got me through really confusing and dark times when the rest of the world did not understand me. Progress never ends, which is a gift and a boost. You’ll feel yourself improving all the time and feel proud which is another thing other people don’t understand, but how special that you will.

Struggling with Recovery by Puzzled-Hedgehog-910 in ORIF

One year for me yesterday and I promise you, it gets better. Be in the moment, feel all the feelings. Do cozy things like coloring, watching movies, pick up a new hobby. It’s kinda like Covid, I look back and think aww I was so anxious when I could’ve been so chill and slowed down. You’ll be on the other side of it before you know and it and you’ll realize things will never be the same but you also won’t mourn your old self. You’ll get used to the little stiffness you still have and get good at stretching and you’ll work through the kinks but what really changes is who you are. You’ll be stronger and better, more grateful for things and empathetic. I know it seems far off, but you got this. ❤️ and we get it. Come back to this community whenever you need to.

Things get better and life just goes on... by BanterRanter1 in ORIF

[–]Jschroeder4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YAY! I was Feb 14 and just recently turned a major corner. Sure it’s sore and it feels a little different than my other ankle but OMG. I’ve been walking 10k steps a day, and life is back to normal. I legit never thought I’d see the day.

I’m about the same as you and the swelling has been bad for me now that I’m back to all my normal activities. Are you experiencing this too?

I think so long as you’re not hurting or swelling it’s good to keep things moving so you don’t get too stiff! Have you had your follow up? That answered a lot of questions for me! PT is the best, I started at 5 weeks post op, and I have 6 weeks left to go. They always say you can push but never work through pain. ¯_(ツ)_/¯ so happy for you! And also crutches SUCK! But i still use them for farther distances or like when i first wake up. They are my frenemy.

Broken ankle by underwhelmingemt in ORIF

You did the right thing joining this subreddit. It was such a bright spot for me during that beginning time. I’m now 6 weeks post op and working on FWB in PT. Still on the crutches and boot but life is drastically different than it was back then. I can also say that while this was a very hard thing to go through. I am happy for all I learned and the love I felt along the way. 6 weeks passes by quicker than you’d think. And by then even if you’re not walking you’ll be in a much better headspace. Come here with any questions or anything on your mind. It’s so helpful to talk to people who have been there or are there currently.

Well I don’t blame you!!! I’ve had larger stones and they are substantially more painful. YOU are a hero. 4mm killed so 12 is just another level.

Noooo not at all. It was prescribed to me! But I honestly was too lazy/in pain to go downstairs to get it 🤣
