Ths surgery didn't seem to work at all. The affected numb/painful foot
that didn't have thi problem before surgerey is still numb/painful.
Whenever I call the surgeons office they go into some discussion about
additional pain meds will have to be handled through a pain management
specialist even if i just ask how long my foot/leg will still be
unusable. i haven't even talked to the surgeon since just before
release on friday. there is no doubt this is neurological in nature
since it wasn;t like ths before the first surgery. sorry i cant type
well laying in bed which ive been doig since i got home. surgeon is
suppoosed to call me tomorrow and i'm supposed to have an at home PT
assessnent too. 2 surgeries and i don't feel any improvement. am i
looking for something too soon?
