Well been 3 weeks now & 3 more before I can put any weight on it. BORED out of my mind. The wife is taking good care of me but I know I'm getting on her nerves. My first week home I was popping percocets like candy after about 50 of them I was depressed bad took me 4 days to shake the depression but I'm good now. Fuck those Percocets -Bud
Nice scar.... Good luck with rehab... I had a reconstruction of my right ankle. No weight bearing for ten weeks.
Damn what an shit load of stitches. Don't guess minimally invasive was an option. My hip scars aren't half that big but that's a different replacement. I took a shitload of oxycodone (240 mgs/day) for 5 years and dropped it when my hips were replaced. Took me about 3 months but I did it on my own. The depression is a bitch, I went to bed crying, got up crying and had no fucking idea over what. Tried to sleep as much as possible to keep the real world away. The doctor warned me but I didn't listen till it was full blown. Got some antidepressants that really helped. But getting off the oxy made the difference. So I'm off both now. There's nothing wrong with antidepressants, they help and you'd be surprised how many people take them. Just stay positive and know better days are coming!! And don't slack on the rehab. GOOD LUCK!! Be Cool, CG
Bud, good luck with your recovery. :thumbs-up: Pills suck. Work as hard as your foot will let you for rehab. I always seem to push mine to the limits till the rehab nurses tell me that I may do more harm than good. Then I back off a little. Good luck.
God damn bud that looks like that hurts like a son of a bitch! Stay stoned and lay back. Better days ahead t6
Get better big guy. Good vibes. Hospitals and pills will fuck you up. My dad is the chillest guy...never depressed and always comfortable in himself (built his own helicopter for christs sake) but three days in a hospital after heart surgury...he called me up at 4AM sounding lucid as ever...told me to come break him out and help him commit suicide. Three days and he was fully looney/depressed. Then we switched his blood pressure meds and he was fine. Seriously...fuck modern meds.They did save his life though....
Well I'm not real happy half my foot is numb & 6 weeks with no weight on it 2 more weeks too go. Plus the doctor said it would stop all the pain then before the operation it should take care of most of the pain. I'm still hopeful we'll see in 2 weeks.-Bud
New tat for Bud. A lifelike zipper on his ankle. Glad to hear you're getting around old head. Any more new parts coming soon?
It takes a while for the nerves to get fired back up after a gash like that. The swelling also puts a lot of pressure on the nerve canal pinching off the signal. I don't know about stopping all the pain but it'll be a hell of a lot less than before. Good luck!!! Be Cool, CG
That's a hardcore scar.....holy shit! Your guna be throwing the pussy away with a scar like that:roffl:
