Glad to see you are healing. One of my co-workers broke his ankle late last year, was off for 6 or 8 weeks , came back to work for 2 weeks, went to see the surgeon who said " Didn't heal right, have to break it and reset it. I can do that tomorrow, Dec. 24." Nice Christmas present!! He was off another 8 weeks, but all is good now.
Keep up with the physio and good luck!
Old guys heal slower, so good thing to listen to the body, NOT the BRAIN that thinks "I can do that I'm still only 40" :)( Body is really 64, brain still thinks the body is 40) ( Voice of bad experience)
