I had my final orthopedic appointment this morning with Dr. Savage. The rebellious side of me took the boot off and did away with the crutches last Sunday, the 27th. Today was the day I was supposed to get the okay to walk. I’ve been gingerly walking on both legs since. It’s amazing how such a simple task such as walking it taken for granted.
I got a clean bill of health this morning. Doc said everything looked good as the bone will continue to heal over the coarse of 3 more months. I’m not 100% sure if I’ll actually do this, but I went ahead and asked when I could start jogging/running. He said he wanted me to make sure I could painlessly walk 3 miles before attempting to jog or endure any other high impact activity.
I’m a happy biped again!
