The Dr also found some bone that he had to shave off.  He said he had not seen that size of bone in his 20 years of practice.  I’m hoping to get to put some weight on my foot tomorrow.

    Yes, I got a boot and I can put a little pressure down using a walker or crutches.  Dr said it is looking good.  I have’t tried to put any pressure on the foot,yet.  I’m afraid.  I don’t want to mess anything up.  I will start PT in about 3 or 4 weeks.  I’m getting a lot of pain on the side or the foot near the start of the incision.  Are you finding you have more pain and discomfort at night?
