Ankle Replacement

Cal_Lee

Hello, I’m new here. Would be great to find someone else to speak to who has had a total ankle replacement. They’re so rare, even GPs and the local hospital have never heard of them. It’s a lonely place!!!

Hello  @Cal_Lee and welcome to the Community. We are a friendly and supportive group and I hope that will be your experience as well.

We have separated your comment out into a separate discussion so that it is easier for other community members to find so hopefully some of our very experienced members will respond with their experiences.

Please keep posting now you are here and let us know how you are getting on.

Best wishes

Have you looked at these previous threads:

I think @prefabkid47 might have had his done a few years back too.

It really is much rarer so if you could let us know how you get on that would be good for the next person who comes along in the same position as you.

Take care
