Anyone broken their ankle?!


Question: Anyone broken their ankle.?
Hi I broke my ankle August 13th falling down my basement stairs, I went to emerg where they took xrays and realized I needed to go for surgery to have plates and screws put in on both sides. In the ER that night they put me right out and popped it back into place. Then August 15th I was transferred to another hospital for surgery. Now tomorrow is my 6 week or so mark and I go for xrays and find out about weight baring. I am so excited I have 4 little girls so this hasn't been in easy road!

My question is...Has anyone else broken their ankle.? and if so,how long till you were better.?Health Question & Answer
