jatx, doc said no go on the caddy. He's seen issues with clots and doesn't recommend it unless someone is simply incapable of using crutches. Besides, I need to work my abs and arms while I'm doing nothing else  .
He also gave me a handicapped placard since I'll be on my own for the most part. My 71 y/o mother is making fun of me. |
Blitz has good INFO. I know a bit about ankle/foot problems as an AK 7.62 mm blew the fibula out and about 1/3 of the lower calf. I used to have a very tired foot after walking some as I walked like a damn duck. The troops could hear me approaching. I must have been a riot with that right foot slapping the ground like a duck.
Blitz is telling you straight. My ankle and foot have never got better- only worse. However, I had an ER surgeon in Tuy Hoa. You have a specialist. Best wishes.
