No surgery! No cast! I have a larger immobilizer that is pretty much ankle to crotch and still on crutches but can walk without them short distances. I got back in 2 weeks for more x-rays at which point I either get to break out of the brace or am in it for another 2 weeks. Then I have to do physical therapy for range of motion which could last anywhere from 2-6 months. 

 

 

I have my appointment with the orthopedic surgeon tomorrow. I am so scared of what they will find out. Of course I have been dr. googling my type of break and a lot of people end up with surgery or a cast for like 8 weeks. The doctor I saw before said they may let me just keep the full leg immobilizer and crutches which I am praying for. I would love vibes! 

thanks

Hope you don't have to have surgery.  That would be tough with a toddler!

No surgery is great news!  Having a full leg immobilizer doesn't sound that fun at all though.

Glad there is no surgery or cast needed!
