I started walking again about a month ago against my doctor’s wishes, but she said if it wasn’t hurting then continue. It hurt some, but not to bad. Today I started adding some short jogs in my walk to see if my ankle can hold up to it. My next doctor’s appointment is Wed. and I’m hoping she will say I can continue as long as the ankle doesn’t look to swollen. She feels if I can continue with PT I will not need surgery, but it will be a slow recovery.

Thanks everyone! I was so embarrassed to first post again since I left the site without a goodbye or anything. I'm determined to get back to it even if I have to walk for awhile longer. I'm not the first person to get an injury and it is by far not the worst one can have. So it's time to stop the pity party and put one foot in front of the other. I'm glad to be back! Thanks again!

I figure if we have the motivation/ ability to get out there and start the baby steps again, then we certainly have the right to log them, don't we?
