Oh the pain I am in...

Talus Fracture from Fall

my view

How Did It Happen?

I was going down my steps and I had my grand daughter in my arms. The next thing I knew I was falling. I passed out and when I came to, I was in so much pain. I have never been in that much pain in my life. I hurt it April the 17 and it is now May the 11 . I go to see my Dr. the 13 I will know what he is going to do. and I am also having nausea

How Was Your Recovery?

I have not recovered yet. I am still in so much pain and am still going to the Dr's and having x-rays done and MRI's done. It may take long because I have had back surgeries and ankle surgeries in the past.

Tips and Tricks

  • my husband has put what I need by my bed so I will have it. my daughter lives with me and brings me my meals. and my husband helps me with my bath. I sit on the side of the tub and slide in and I pull my self up on the side of the tub with my husbands help.

How Long Was It Before You Returned to Sports?

I have not returned to sports.
