I have just had my 3rd fusion, originally i had just my subtalar fused as i shattered my heel in 1995. After a year the pain was worse and subtalar was not fusing and my anklle had now become very damaged and also my cartilage was shot . My second fusion was to redo the subtalar and also the ankle using some fibul bone from my leg, another year went past and all joint were non union andpain was still bad. I have just had my 3rd fusion (22,6,2016) which is subtalar and ankle but this time i have a plate down the side of my leg which is ment to be more solid and have had some bone taken from my pelvis. Had my clips and stitches out yesterday and and a nice new plaster from the knee down, i am not very excited as i am expecting the same results as the last 2 ops but you never know this one might work :). I live in Hastings and my kids love going to the beech and are always puzzled as why i cant go in the beech, things like this do get you down as stairs and any uneven surface are a nightmare but i just hope the pain goes as it is just getting me down.
