They've been coming on steadily since Tamsyn was born and I finally got to see the surgeon last Tuesday. I'm booked in for surgery this Monday, apparently it's more complicated than just removing the lump, a pin needs to be inserted and other stuff played with.
So I'll be wearing a special shoe for six weeks and won't be able to walk very far (doggy won't be impressed!), but if in the long run it means that I'll have a lot more energy, less lethargy and won't walk with a slight limp then I'll be happy.
You have my sincere sympathy! When my feet hurt, I hurt all over! When you get home after surgery, please do take care of yourself, and wear that cute boot everywhere you go! Don't have so much pride that it doesn't have a chance to heal well! You'll be sorry! ---"Love"
ReplyDeleteMy cousin had both feet done at the same time and she has had no problem since they healed. I am sure you will feel much better once you have it fixed.
ReplyDeleteMy sister has two really bad bunions and has put off surgery for years. I'll be interested in how you go.
ReplyDeleteLook forward to the fun, long doggy walks in a couple of months :-)
ReplyDeleteoooh, I have one, not that I knew I had on till my sister pointed it out! Ill be interested to hear how you go as I havent even been to the Dr about it yet! Good luck xxxx
ReplyDeleteYou poor wee thing! I hope the surgery gives you the relief that you seek and that it all goes well. The dog will survive (just). Take care, Ann :-)
ReplyDeleteOh no Jen...all the best for surgery...Hope all goes well for you...I'm sure your doggie will be patient with you...
ReplyDeleteOh no! I hope your surgery goes well!! Be prepared for some physical therapy (aka physiotherapy your way). I have a bunionette (on the outside of the foot) on my right foot. I feel your pain. *hugs* Christine
ReplyDeleteAll will be better when this is over, I'm sure. Take care of yourself and mend well--easily said, right? Moms tend to try and take care of everything, but take any help you can on this one. Mary
ReplyDeleteYou poor love - hope all goes well with the surgery and you are back on glamorous feet soon xx
