I had my final post-op appointment with my surgeon today! He was very positive and happy with the way my feet are healing and even congratulated me on my progress... He told me that in another three weeks I should see a dramatic difference in the way my feet both look and feel especially in regard to swelling. He advised that I wait until then (the 12 week mark) to start buying "proper" new shoes... he also said that I should be good to get back en pointe at ballet class!
Not surprisingly (at least to me), I am exhausted from all the walking I have done today. I've been awake since 4:30am, caught two planes, travelled over 1200 kilometers, spent at least two hours pounding the pavement and done a 90 minute jazz class! I have a feeling I will be waking to some very swollen feet and some incredibly tight calves :p
