okay so….i’m fifteen and i have to get surgery. i talked to my doctor but i’m not really sure what it entails. He said that they’d go in and break my big toe in a couple of places take wedges out, and then put them back with plates and screws
.. how long will i need to take of school? not do anything? Thanks so much!!
I have included a number of sites below that you may want to look at. Hopefully I am not overloading you with info. I don’t know if they have scheduled you yet or not, hopefully not. Either way go through the information and make a list of questions that you come up with. I think you are very smart for asking and trying to find out what is going on. You are ultimately responsible for saying you are comfortable and lets do it,,,,,Or I have a couple more things I don’t really understand and would like some answers before you start. There is no surgery that can be taken back, NONE. Get any answers before proceeding.
