Anyone so bored that all they wanna do is eat!!! Shared post Jenny Lynn I’m 8 days out… 1st MTP fusion with a bone graft from the back of my foot. (Hope I said that right!) I’m still numb from my knee to ankle, but can mildly move my toes. It hurts too much to walk on the heel of my foot like the doctor said I could from day 1. I’m on otc pain meds now. Pain is there but tolerable. When does this ease up? I’m 8 days out… 1st MTP fusion with a bone graft from the back of my foot. (Hope I said that right!)

I just had my surgery on the 12th, I been in so much pain even after taking ibuprofen, but my main concern is imsonia. I have not slept for the past 3 days. I googled it and it said my body could be withdrawing from the oxys and it can take 1-2 weeks to go back to normal but I am tired and feel so weird without sleep! Should I bring it up to my doctor now or wait the 1-2 weeks 😪 (I have tried melatonin gummies, Tylenol pm, teas and nothing works, I cannot sleep)😣 Hello, thank you for accepting my request.

This would be for those further out from surgery and already walking normally. Curious what your experience was like and if you saw good results/benefits, which brand would you recommend? Shared post Lacy Jean Nesler Update: Well I overdid it again and am feeing so so much excruciating pain this evening in the ball of my foot and nerve pain. Why can’t I catch a break?😞 Ok almost 8 weeks post lapidus bunionectomy, and walking around with the hoka tennis shoes. Still having pain in arch due to post op bruise. Btw bruises take forever to heal!! Still having pain in ball of foot but pull a metatarsal pad on and it’s helping! Going to town today and tomorrow. Little by little I’m getting there. Still trouble with sleeping but hopefully that’s gonna get better too. This is a process! Open to ideas for better sleeping. Currently on gabapentin for nerve pain, Benadryl, CBD gummy and Tylenol/ibuprofen. Really don’t wanna take any more prescriptions. Tried melatonin and magnesium. Not really sure if that helped or not. I do still ice and elevate at night but I’m a side sleeper so I end up sleeping in my side and wake up in pain in that ball of my foot mostly.lch Update: Well I overdid it again and am feeing so so much excruciating pain this evening in the ball of my foot and nerve pain.

She’s starting me on steroids in hopes that solves the problem. It would be fabulous if that was it! Xrays showed full healing of the bones and she was very impressed. Fingers crossed that the steroids help Please help, I’m in so much pain. I had my lapidus bunionectomy on 10/24 and am continuing to have so much nerve pain, exacerbated by walking. I’m able to partially bear weight with boot with crutches. The culprit seems to be the ball of my foot and the bruise in my arch(that’s fading slowly). Already taking gabapentin. Tried to wean bc I’m stubborn and hate taking meds, but decided that’s not a good idea. Doc suspects CRPS(complex regional pain syndrome) but from what I’ve read, ppl with that can’t walk. Walking actually doesn’t bother me much, it’s when I stop that it hurts. I’m icing and elevating. Sleep is rough. Taking CBD gummies to sleep. What am I missing? Am I too impatient? Yes I was an idiot and fully walked on it 2 weeks in which I acknowledge was dumb and may have set me back. X-rays thankfully were normal since.eli *Update: had my 6wk post op snd my doc thinks i have fluid buildup in the pad of my foot where the pain is originating from.
