I was wondering if anyone has had this injury before.  I broke my ankle 11/30.  Had surgery a week later.  Now I am 7 days postop.  Surgery was supposed to take 1 1/2 hours tops, well it took over 3 hours.  What went from being 2 week non weightbearing is probably going to be more like 6 weeks or more.  UGH this sucks and I am pretty bummed.  

Ohhh sooo sorry! Hang in there!

I'm trying but this sucks!!  I've had broken bones before but not like this.  The dr said they put in so many screw/pins in it, that if I tried to stand on it now that bones would pretty much collapse.  There would not be much to put back together.  Needless to say I am making sure that foot doesn't touch the floor.  One more week of foot in the air above  my heart.
