Hey Everyone,
So I am now 5 months since the drop foot nerve injury. Still the surgeon can’t tell me how the injury happened exactly, which is strange to me as surely he should have some idea of what went wrong . Did he dislocate the leg too much ? , be to aggressive moving the sciatic nerve to operate? Take too long putting pressure on the nerve ? . I’m the third person he has had this happen to . Any way no real change so far , getting a little more strength , still no upward movement. A guy contacted me who was operated on by a Jason Brockwell , had this same injury and he took 14 months to get recovery, and full Recovery , he is back playing competitive tennis and running . So this gives me hope that I too can recover, still a long way to go . Looking back on the last 5 months , I have recovered some what . I could not even balance on my foot and I can now balance a little . I see the surgeon again this Thursday but the hip joint feels great , just so disappointing this drop foot happened or I feel I could be back surfing, jogging and doing all the normal activities I use too. I know I need to just stay positive and keep working on healing . Any one else out there with this injury please feel free to get in touch. Coby010679@yahoo.com.au . Thanks
