On July 1st I had to have another ankle surgery, this one involved having a graph and screws to help rebuild my shattered ankle. It's been a very long 7 months as I am still unable to walk with out the boot. I can't walk very far with out my crutches either. I even still have my knee walker for those really really bad days. I was dropped from PT because I was not progressing, more like regressing. And now today my doctor has told me that because of all the surgeries I have had to reconstruct the ankle I have sever nerve damage and that is why I am still in lots of pain. So I have to now see a pain specialist to help manage the pain. It is so hard for me because before I fell at work four years ago I would get up in the morning and hit the gym or go running before work. Then BAM this happens. Suddenly I am unable to go to the gym I spent my days laying on the couch or in bed with my ankle elevated recovering from one surgery after another. So I reached for the comfort food. The only good thing that has happened today is that when I went for my checkup they made me weigh in and I discovered I have lost 7 lbs. This made my day. First because it has been a LONG time since I have seen the number 2 as the first digit in my weight. The second because it made me really feel like I could do this. :)

I really understand about multiple surgeries!!! I have two failed shoulder surgeries from 7+ years ago and so I swore that was the end of a surgical blade coming close to my shoulder... but I took a leap of faith based on my trust in my husband and agreed to visit a surgeon he had found (the other is out of business) and I am currently recovering from my third surgery six weeks ago and all I can say is this is what it was supposed to be like in 2007... I know my situation is different than yours but I also know what chronic pain is (7+ years) and how it wears you down but you will be able to manage the pain! So keep focusing on the positive (it took me a while) as that will keep you going :)

Thanks for the encouragement. :) I am glad to hear that your recovery is going better this time around. And I agree I am not going to focus on the disappoint in my recovery, I am going to focus on the fact I have lost some weight and the fact that I have been told the pain specialist I am seeing is one of the best.

Awesome on finding an excellent pain specialist! You are already in control of your recovery by being a part of this challenge!! And thank you for the support on my recovery :) My goal with my shoulder is to be able to do a cartwheel by summer... that should be interesting since I'm not 20 or even 40 any more... but I will do one!!
