Today marks the one month anniverary of the surgery to remove the bone spur that was growing around my left Achillies tendon. The first week after surgery was rather uneventful. There was very little pain from the surgery; almost all of the pain was from my lower back because I could not find a comfortable position to sleep in and keep my foot elevated. The second week, was a bit more painful. Because my ankle was feeling so good, I was up and about the house much more than I should have. Plus we spent Thanksgiving with friends. So, on doctor’s orders, I was sent back to bed with my foot elevated. That eliminated most of the pain felt during the second week.
