Sweet Moses Brown, start your own Broken Leg thread! I don't know if yours is better or worse than mine. I hope you get full use of yours back. I'm trying to do exactly as the doc says. You will appreciate the knee scooter. Hate sorry crutches. Yes you get very tired of them. Rub your underarms raw. I think I'm done with them. I hope Got out of the air boot today. I have a velcro brace that I can use inside my lace up work boots. Got release to go back to work. I'm thankful!!!

That looks awful. I hope they let you keep the screws when they pull them out. They'll make a hellava conversation piece.

Boot is better than damn crutches. I'm limping some, going to therapy. My crash was 3 months ago today. Do what doc says. Are you able to work? I went back sept 2. Thankful I had enough sick days. Hope you get better soon. I know you are tired of the whole damn thing.

Damn I hate that for you. I very lucky to be paid for the 12 weeks i was off. Lucky Wifey took care of me also. I have pins and screws also. Getting lots little shocks. They say its nerves growing back together. Sometimes feels like I'm getting a shot. They told me to take vitamins and calcium supplements. Putting ice packs helps with swelling. Get well !! I know this sucks where you are at now, but you are ahead if where you were.
