Hi @Diane
Maybe a chat with your GP is an idea? He or she should have had a letter from the consultant explaining what is what with your ankles. It sounds as though they aren't bad enough to have surgery yet, but your GP can still help you with pain relief physio referrals etc.
I'm so glad you have the foot clinic apt in place at least ((()))
