Hi Kris

His stitches were disolvable, so he didn't need them out. His leg looks so skinny already! Like a chicken leg. No more pain meds, and we just need to heal now. How are you Kris? How did you do, is the doc back from vacation?

This is such a wonderful forum, you are all so kind.

Diana,

I saw my doc Wed and got my splint/cast off and am now in a boot. I have 4 more weeks of NWB, 1 week of PWB and then a few more weeks in the boot without crutches. My leg is super skinny too! My ankle is quite swollen now, more than Wed. I've been moving it around but it pretty much feels frozen again. I'm hoping it is just because of 2 weeks of no movement.
