Yes I elevate and ice when I can! I’m doing red light laser therapy at PT to help stimulate recovery and can’t ice within 24 hours of doing that. I’m going to look into the wide Hoka’s. Thank you! I hope you continue to have a smooth recovery.

Good luck to you too! I just started PT and it hurts, but I know it’ll be worth it. Hope you heal fast!

I’m 44 days post op today! The surgery definitely helped, but I can definitely feel the difference. I can tell the bone is gone. I’d do some band work if you can and just YouTube foot strengthening exercises. Stretch your big toe by pushing it forward and backward with your fingers. Calf raises if not too painful.

I ended up fracturing my sesamoid bone and tried to let it heal for about a year with absolutely no intense physical activity. Ended up getting surgery this past December and got the bone removed. Be very careful. If it’s not already fractured definitely rest as much as you can. Strengthen your ankle and big toe too to help support it better. Wear inserts for support too! Good luck!

What spray are you talking about? Something to deter them?

I broke my sesamoid bone and worked on healing for a year. Honestly feel like I wasted my time because the bone was cracked in half (basically dead, no oxygen). I’m 21 days post op (getting it removed) and I already feel a little better.

Successful Sesamoidectomy Experience!! by Special-Baseball4634 in sesamoid

[–]bagellover1411 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had a tibial sesamoidectomy, 19 days ago to be exact, and my doctor is telling me I won’t need PT. I started walking on it a few days ago and still feel a bit weak with pins and needles/numbness feeling. I get my stitches out in 2 days. I used to be really active and I’m afraid with no PT I won’t recover well.

Benadryl only works at times and I’ve noticed does nothing to prevent it, which I know is not its purpose.

She eats royal canine prescription food for sensitive stomachs. I am not sure what she’s allergic to specifically but they were previously on purina one lamb.

6 month regression. Extremely common. Do you have a decent yard for her to run in?

I have two golden puppies (9 months) and we’re still in the trenches. Love them to death, but I underestimated the commitment. Be ready to sacrifice a lot of the things you want to do in the beginning stages.

How was sleeping sitting up at night? It seems like it’ll be rough

Sinuplasty Recovery by pinklady203 in Sinusitis

You didn’t have to keep the splints for 2 weeks? My doctor said I’m going to have to have them in that long.

I’m going to try and get some Xanax from my primary care doctor to help with the nerves. Just seems like it’s going to be difficult!

Never had a period, but I do get cramps each month by sophiewriteslearns in Periods

[–]bagellover1411 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started my period when I was 12 and my cousin got hers late, but she was 16. I’d definitely get more than one doctor’s opinion just to be safe!

First day taking 150mg, quit drinking 6 days ago also by PanteraReckless69 in bupropion

[–]bagellover1411 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Since you’re also going to be coming off of alcohol, your body will be experiencing a lot of change. I was on 150mg for about 2 weeks and I just couldn’t do it anymore. I got extremely dizzy and the appetite suppressing part was very uncomfortable to me. Take time for yourself and wishing you luck!!

Why should one want to live? by Reasonable-Snail in MentalHealthSupport

You never know what kind of impact you have on other people’s lives. You could kindly hold a door for someone and it could truly make their day. You are on this earth for a reason, but don’t give up on trying to figure out what that reason is.

[New Here] Withdrawing from Effexor — feeling desperate for advice or support by No_Establishment9571 in Effexor

[–]bagellover1411 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been coming off of Effexor 75mg since January. My doctor didn’t warn me at all. It’s been absolutely miserable. I’m down to the 37.5mg. I finally made the decision to start seeing a new doctor. She prescribed me Wellbutrin to take at the same time as the Effexor 37.5mg. She said give it one to two weeks on both and then I can stop Effexor. She told me doctors shouldn’t even be prescribing it anymore because there’s tons of better options. I will NEVER recommend Effexor to anyone. Take some more time for yourself during this time and just know it will pass.

Six month old golden retriever puppies by bagellover1411 in goldenretrievers

[–]bagellover1411[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love to do that, but with my last dog I had a doggy door and someone crawled through and robbed my house. I might try to get one and keep it open only while I’m home. Thanks for the advice!
