I am five and a half weeks post bilateral MIS surgery for removal of bunions and correction of hammer toe on one foot. I have been nervous all of the time about putting down foot by mistake and this morning it happened. Getting back into bed after early morning loo stop, I removed one shoe, swung up leg onto the bed, loosened the other and then found myself putting the trailing foot on the floor with pressure ! Why? I am so disappointed with myself! Have been so determined to do everything right! I go back to see the consultant on Tuesday for my 6 weeks check. He had said that if I felt confident ( which I haven't!) then I could try trainers during the course of week 6 ( which is this week ) so I suppose if I had then I would already have put weight onto foot. Scared in case I have done something to damage my foot and undo everything that has happened over the last weeks! Help! Has this happened to anyone else?

I hope you are ok, I wouldn't think at the stage you are at that you have done any damage, especially if you aren't experiencing any additional pain or discomfort from standing on your foot without the shoe. Good luck in your remaining recovery period.
