Well, after radio silence for well over a year, yikes, almost two, I am happy to update that my foot is like new!

For me, the healing was long, stubborn and frustrating, but the end result is very good.  After all, it was eleven months before I could do a downward dog.  Although, I was able to travel to, from, and around Asia six times during the recovery period, so maybe there are extenuating factors.  Best of all, shoes that I shelved for good are now being worn again, which really saves on the shoe budget!

Surgery should never be entered into without sufficient medical advice, along with personal research and consideration, but for me this was a good decision and positive outcome!  And, I did not become addicted to pain killer medication!!!
