    I got my left foot done first because it would ache and ache more than my right foot. It was worse than my right foot to. I had a hard time after surgery but it was like whatever..,that's just how surgery is. I had my right foot done exactly a month later and I had such a easier time with it! Darn left feet!!

      Well I had my left foot done 18 years ago but all they.did was shave the bump off so the bunion came bk so my dr says because of scare tissue thats why my foot might hurt worse

      Oh wow!! sad I can't believe they didn't know then that just shaving the bone would bring the bunion back. I'm sorry you have to go through it again. I couldn't imagine having my foot cut again in the same spot.

      Are you taking the pain medication??? If so, it is what's making you so sick. It made me sweat profusely when I stood up and dizzy...everything went white, ears ringing, and that horrible feeling of just wanting to vomit everywhere.

      Hi Rebecca hope you are feeling a lot better. I think if you have still got a temperature you should call your Dr, you might have an infection but would be worth checking out.Kind regards

    It's good that there is no sign of infection in your foot, so why have you got a fever?
