After having my MIS bunion surgery on 25.06.05.

After having my MIS bunion surgery on 25.06.05. I felt pretty surprisingly good and was able to weight bare pretty much straight away... But my "ego" thought I wouldn't need any pain relief, but that's because the "nerve block" is very deceptive and tricks you into thinking you're Superman until it starts to wear off! Prior to the surgery I quite liked the "falling asleep" bit of the anesthetic, but after surgery I felt like my body was involved in the custody battle between hunger and nausea...but that has now gone. There have been some quite strong throbbing sensations in my foot at night making sleep the biggest challenge I'm facing at the moment... especially as I don't naturally sleep on my back. Even though I shuffle kinda like one of those walking dead zombies; I've upped my vitamin D with K2 intake and will continue with my vitamin c & zinc among others. I choose the MIS method, because I'm quite active and want gentle movement and mobility to be a part of my recovery process, but I'm writing these posts to "share" but not compare...but so far despite the early challenges I have no regrets. I've read a range of posts and experiences and have come to realise we're all individual, so it's important to stay as comfortable as possible and respect the healing process. Look after yourselves my friends. P.S. If this goes smoothly I will get the left one done as well.
