Achilles injury update - 12/29/08
Went in to check on the suture and all is looking good. Here's a picture. The swelling isn't too bad and the pain is getting less and less each day. I'll be removing the stitches next Monday.There are two types of achilles surgery:
- In open surgery, the surgeon makes a single large incision in the back of the leg.
- In percutaneous surgery, the surgeon makes several small incisions rather than one large incision.
I should be in a walking boot on January 23rd. One month from the surgery.
I set up my Flexible Savings Account(FSA) which is a way to use pre-tax dollars to pay for approved medical expenses. This the first time I'm using FSA so I allocated $700 for the upcoming year. I'll have till April 2010 to use the $700 up or use it. Shouldn't be a problem with the PT and other charges.

Can you make it to a UH basketball game in early January or should we reschedule for a later date when you're more mobile?
I can't make it in early January. I'll be in a walking boot after Jan 23rd so I can go after that.
