Ankle report

[Keetoman393]

This is for entertainment use and for Dr. Mark to take a look at. It's my ankle x-rays pre-op and post-op. I can say I am all screwed up now!

Here is the report where I broke it. St. Jo Ride Report.

Pre -Op EWWWWWW Jedi, no wonder you heard bones crunching when you were pulling my boot off!



Post-Op - I'm all screwed back together again!



So what do you think Dr. Mark? They have to take the two long screws going through the Tib and Fib back out in 4 weeks then I can put pressure on it and start working it out. What am I looking at as far as recovery before I can start riding again?

I hope chics dig scars!

[char393]

Yeah.... you'd better hope chicks dig scars.

I'm just glad the bunnyboy is in one piece again.

I love the pre-op pic. You can see the texture of the wrap we put on you at the track. Sorry, I know it's not funny.

That's actually the cast they put on before the operation.

Yep, that makes sense.

I think your scar is kinda cute. NOT!!!

It looks like it hurts.

[Keetoman393]

Nah, just feels like a scratch now

Nice job, but I wouldn't remove those lower screws for eight weeks. Then walk on it.

Just tell your doc you can't make it in for an additional four weeks, Keeto. It's your leg.

[Keetoman393]

Thanks Dr. Mark! It will be a total of 8 weeks before he is to schedule the next surgery to remove those two screws. I should have clarified that in the post.

So how long after those screws are removed until I am back in the saddle?

[Keetoman393]

What kind of doctor would leave something like this? I found it on the net!

Um... Looks like that one screw needed a washer.

I was thinking he needs to get a re-do on that one!

YEEE-OUCH!! Dang, that is brutal. Uh...when you're done with the screws can I use them to build some cabinets for my garage?

I can only give two screws up and I think they may be a little long for cabinet work! Besides, I have to help pay for this operation so the going rate for those two will be about $10,000 each. That's negotiable though.

Uh....nevermind
