So I broke my ankle

Sooo where do I start,

I do a lot of crazy shit and nothing ever happens to me but I somehow managed to break my ankle doing more or less a normal task.

I went to the emergency room and had a cast put on with a follow up the week after,

It resulted that I needed surgery and a plate to fix the Weber b break I had.. fuck.

So I had surgery which was painful but didn’t need many pain killers as the pain went after the next day or 2, too bad I didn’t get any oxys would have been a good excuse lol.

So I’m told that 2 weeks post op I will have a follow up and stitches removed,

I was hoping maybe I’d be transferred into a walking booker then but it didn’t happen, up until this point I had a back slab cast which was surprisingly comfortable, had to adapt whole life around not having legs which was shit, but after the 2 week mark and removing the stitches I got the fiber glass cast put on for a further 2 weeks.

It was almost like the closer the day came the more the cast was annoying me,

Somehow after feeling like forever this period past I had the cast removed, to be transferred to a walking boot.

The surgeon was impressed with my range of movement considering it had been immobile for 5 weeks and so was my physio therapist.

(I had been on Test & HGH since around the injury for gym)

This helped the healing a lot apart from the vitamins, rest and protein I was taking in.

Now it’s been almost 6 weeks and I removed the walking boot 2 days ago, was meant to be kept until the full 6 weeks, and I can almost walk normally with a little pain

Anyway that’s my experience, got any questions hit me up,

Over all not the best experience but happy it’s over more or less
