Will the leg feel vulnerable? a bit naked? Will I be able to weight bear straight away? How long am I likely to continue to need both crutches, or one?
Will I be able to get myself home without help afterwards?
I have no pain now, will it hurt as I start to use it? Does physio hurt?
The cast is due off on 5th May, I have a (UK) holiday booked for the end of may (half term). How incapacitated am I still likely to be if I do everything to the letter?
This easter holiday has been terrible as I can't take the boys out far. I really need them to have a fantastic half term to make up for it. DH has been doing his best but he's self-employed so during the week it has mostly been just us mooching around the house and garden with the occasional trip to friends houses. I really need to get back to normal as soon as practically possible.
