Multiple foot problems

Post a new topicby hopalong on Mon Jan 28, 2008 11:18 pm

I have been putting off surgery for years but finally have come to the conclusion that not having surgery is just not an option since I am a nurse, teacher and mother of teenagers and approaching my 50th b-day. On my left foot I have a bunion hammertoe, morton neuroma and metarsalgia. I am wondering if anyone has ever had multiple surgical corrections on one foot at one time, and if so how did having 2 or more corrections done at the same time affect the recovery period. I am hoping to have the surgery done at the beginning of June with the intention of returning to work by the beginning of August. Am I being realistic about having all these foot corrections done at one time?
