I hope all goes well. You'll be familiar with the drill but there are always a few pre-op wobbles, aren't there? Good luck and do let's know your progress. I shall be thinking of you.If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

Hi Smig
Will be thinking of you Monday! I'm sure all will go ok,the waiting is usually worse than the event.
I went in one morning for my ankle replacement and came home the following evening.
I'm due to see my surgeon this Tuesday for my 3 year check up.
Please keep us informed!
Regards

gl with the opp , at some point I am facing the same thing ,had triple fusions in both ankles , puts me off having the main joint fused as well because the problems driving , why did they chose to replace instead of fusing the main joint0

Had no trouble driving with fusion having ankle replacement so I do not lose up and down movement which I have lost with ankle fusion0

Good luck for today, I hope all goes smoothly and please let us know how you get on. DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0
