Morning everyone. By the looks of things the surgery on my left ankle went all to plan. Three bits of bone were removed from the joint and the chap shaved away two pesky little spurs that were limiting the movement of the Talus bone.
The type of rehab depends on how aggressive I want to be. Too little and the ankle will go stiff on me and of course too much too soon risks undoing the good work from the operating table.
As perhaps could be expected I've opted for the aggressive route which yesterday saw me doing a range of ankle joint movements which then culminated in walking, albeit gingerly, without crutches. Now that was somewhat sore..... My attempt to scale a few stairs in the hospital physio area was comedy gold to the onlooking staff.
Anyway. I'm feeling super energised at the moment. I had expected a big fall in motivation post op but no... I've not felt this good about things, life and the goals I've set myself for many months.
The painkillers talking? Quite possibly.
All the best people.
