I'm having MIS next Friday on my left foot.

I'm having MIS next Friday on my left foot. I have help for 3 days. Will that be enough? I already had surgery on my right foot, and I'm 5 weeks into recovery and doing really well. My main concern is whether I'll be ok on my own after 3 days. Ty Pie I think I can kinda relate to what Ariel was going through, because since my MIS bunion surgery, about 8 weeks ago, I have yearned to be a part of the human world again so I could walk, run, and play all day in the sun. I can't quite run, but I can comfortably walk and play in the sun if it isn't over 24°C (75°F). The zingers are like mosquito bites; I have an occasional random visit, but they are far less frequent than before, and the swelling at the base of my toe is get Sarah HB Edited to remove me saying I had x-rays as I've not had any since before my op Hi all. I had MIS, no hardware, NHS UK back in July. I've hit 4 weeks now and it's going well. I've had one appointment at 3 weeks to remove bandages and the surgeon said see you in 6 months! From week 3-5 I am taping my toes to ensure stability of the big toe. Has anyone else in UK had similar aftercare. I expected more check ins and x-rays sooner them Heather Merchant How long do you use the knee scooter to get around? Tiffany Sellers Hello everyone. I am having my surgery tomorrow and am probably over prepared. My concern is im due back to work on Sept 1st (2 weeks and 1 day) I live a 5 minute walk from my job and have a knee scooter. I also sit at a desk all day where I can elevate my leg. Im removing my bunion and getting 2 screws in. I know everyone is different but curious as to how people felt 2 weeks afterwards. My doctor says I should be fine. I can take more time if needed Jaclyn Marie Murphy I’m on day 3 post surgery. exostectomy, 2 inch incision. I was told by the doctor that recovery is way faster and should be lightly walking right after surgery…. Umm yeah no. The pain is worse than I thought and swelling is horrible. My incision is still bleeding. I only took a week off of work so I’m really nervous I’m not going to heal enough. Has anyone had this surgery and was able to walk a little within a week?
