    Great news, glad to hear you are doing well,good luck for the next one. I am  3 weeks post op and doing well, trying to get my toe moving as the physio has shown me, still resting my foot as much as possible, otherwise it swells up but on the whole it has been pretty good.

    Brilliant news Rebecca this gives me hope got mine in Tuesday. I'm having double and hammertoe too! To post a picture I think there's what looks like a little mountain in the corner where you attach? Not 100 percent sure though. But id love to see your foot please. Good luck with the rest of your recovery.

      I will look forward to the pics. I've just checked my phone and I cannot see a way to post pics so your probably right either and iPad or computer will allow you to post.
