I'm walking a lot, not huge distances, my longest so far would be 3km with 2.5 the average. I've been spending a good amount of time on the stationary bike and it has paid off. My calf is now once again the same size as my left one.
Pain wise it is my heel that is the main cause. It still feels like someone cut the bone in half and shifted it sideways. Going down stairs can still result in a big jolt of pain. I rarely take anything for the pain because it's tolerable. My toes are a bit of a sorry state. The second toe has gone crazy and won't bend. That means the others can't really either. Pointing my toes results in a pulling sensation along the side of my foot, pretty much the same as the pain I had prior to surgery. I don't know if this is ok or not.
Next week I have a physio assessment booked. Hopefully they can sort out the kinks.
The scars are pretty good. The one under my heel is barely visible and the tendon resection scar is good. The scar where my heel was cut is a bit ragged and the skin dents in but it's only a foot so I'm not bothered.
