I saw my orthopedic surgeon early this morning. This is the three month follow up appointment after I started wearing a CROW boot for walking. From the x-ray images, the doctor said it looks similar to the results from three months ago. There may be some minor improvements, but it is hard to tell. He did say the ankle is definitely not worse, which was my biggest fear. A worsening ankle will lead to more surgeries and possible amputation.
The surgeon said to keep everything the same and make a follow-up appointment in three months. I was hoping that he would allow me to walk without the boot, but I am happy with the current results.
