Good luck with your healing...

 

yukkis

 

I'll take any good advice. I hate sitting here on the couch all the time

I think I will go back to work in a couple weeks since it's really boring and long weeks.

 

36 staples, 9 inchies long ... :YEAH

i am suprised though they casted you with staples... i bet that was uncomfey?

 

Yeah that's pretty nasty, was that you?

What caught me by surprise is I didn't know about them until they took my cast off. It just answered a lot of questions as to why I was in screaming pain the day after the surgery with the swelling, staples and cast pressure.

 

Yeah me too, makes sense now

If I wouldve known about it I don't think I wouldve been out doing wheelies yesterday

 

haha yup that was me a month ago... looks awesome now though healed up great.. :YEAH
they didn't tell u?! I guess with a cast though it wouldn't matter because it's not like your going to get it stuck on anything or rip it out and no room for infection to get to it..
i hope they gave you good pain meds... i opted out of the heavy ones because i was REALLY starting to like the demorral .. i mean making SURE i was getting a shot 10 min before leaving the hosptial LOL ... instead i just stuck with the darvey's and celebrex...
do you have to wear those hose things on your leg to keep from blood clots?

 

dont feel bad, i had hip replacement a month ago and i went for a ride this weekend .. just around the block or two or three or even four

so are they there for good or would you get any screws removed?

 

i'm sure the doc told ya but try to keep the ankle higher than your heart(it's better if you stay in bed for a while)! That way there's gonna be less blood going there and less pain! Scar is cool IMO..Every scar carries character! Looking at the X-ray is like looking at mine! :YEAH

 

I'm taking Perkacets pain killers. It's pretty strong and works good for me but at the start I was on Dilauded and didn't do anything hence why I was in so much pain.

They had put staples because they cut the skin open for my surgery and as my ankle got twisted backwards and broke my leg, there was a lot of swelling. Today they took the staples off and it hurt like a bitch but feels a lot better now.

 

Yeah that's why Im on the couch with a bunch of pillows under my leg with laptop and Stuntlife.

Your injury really looks like mine. Did you get staples and a cast too?

 

Yes that's what I have been trying to do.

 

look doc i swear i have been keeping my leg elevated...lol

 

i had cast for 6 weeks and they used some dissolvable thread but the hardest part was stretching them muscles after the cast was off...it's been 8 months now and i'm not 100% still

 

thats fookin' brilliant:YEAH

 

DUDE wtf I thought you were already hurt?? damn that sucks man

 

:YEAH

 

hahaha vern your my hero buddy
