Mr. R Posted January 24, 2018 Report Share Posted January 24, 2018 So I had a one year follow up with the Doctor regarding my ankle. So I get an X-ray, and get to see the doctor. Prognosis----------GOODI still have some tenderness and occasional stiffness, and going downstairs can still be difficult at times (try going downstairs without bending your ankle...... I'll wait....... right!)But on the whole it looks good. She showed me the X-ray and the bones and screws. As far as removing my bionics, well they will remain until and unless they prove to be a hindrance. Since it is invasive surgery (again), I think I will put up with being a bit bionic for now.Which is good news as I am going to Italy and Croatia in March (Ahh Rome, pasta, Florence, cheese, Croatia, seafood) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pattern Ghost Posted January 24, 2018 Report Share Posted January 24, 2018 Glad you got some good news. I hope they used non-ferrous metal bits, else the metal detectors are going to be fun on that trip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it does, I'll just show them the scar! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 They'll probably make you strip on the spot anyway, and please don't share pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
