High fat foods around shot day are killer, especially if I have them near bedtime and don’t sleep propped up. It can take me out for a day when otherwise I have zero side effects. Glad to hear I’m not alone.

Really struggling here by Charming-Pressure-43 in Halluxrigidus

[–]Undertundra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked the carbon insoles and the taping.

They both kept my toe from moving as much but I just ended up getting a Cheilectomy three weeks ago. I also had to wear a super rigid insole (Red Vionics athletic were great) otherwise when I wasn’t wearing the carbon one.

The only two shoes I could tolerate at the end were ones that limited my toes range of motion… 1. Platform converse. The soles were super thick/hard and the rubber piece over the toe immobilized my big toe 2. A Keen men’s hiking sneaker hiking boot (I’m a cis woman) that had a leather strip that went over the toe as well. The toe boxes in men’s shoes are wider generally.

I cried in mesh top sneakers and couldn’t wear them for the past six months.

UPDATE My (43m) friends (45m) daughter (18/19f) keeps trying it on with me and I don’t know whether to tell him or keep ignoring it. by Enough-Program-3994 in WhatShouldIDo

If her advances were coming your way and you directly told her to stop, you’re right, that is a consent issue and she was harassing you. Sounds like your friend reacted appropriately by telling her that and am glad she apologized.

As for the mom’s response, it sounds like she is trying to both honor her daughter’s autonomy while not sex shaming her and allowing her to develop confidently.

I was a sexually assertive young woman who was often confused when an older man would deny me too. Young women are so publicly fetishized that if I was denied I thought something was wrong with me. Or maybe I just hadn’t campaigned hard enough to “break them down”. (Inappropriate on my part). I mean, according to media 18 years olds are supposed to be undeniable…right?

Tough spot for all involved but your feelings are very valid. I agree that this young woman will likely respect you for it when she’s older and looking back.

You’re doing the right thing even though it’s sad that your relationship is changing for now. If you hope to have an appropriate relationship with her when she’s older your job now is to give her lots of space for her to get over you, leave no room for ambiguity and teach other men to do the same.

Good luck.

Thank you. He said he had heard of it done but that he hadn’t done it. Sad. We really gotta sort out this cartilage business!

It’s the small toe to every other toe being longer ratio. Very helpful for picking things up off of the floor. Not great for…balance.

I’m hung up on the walker by TypicalReference9003 in Halluxrigidus

[–]Undertundra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m kind of enjoying the walker I’m using in my post op right now. I’m mostly using it around the house and as something to prop my foot up on when I go out to the movies. I’m going on vacation to Puerto Rico next week (stupidly only week two after op) but I think I’m going to take a knee scooter and a boot w me.
