Journal Entry for September 25, 2007 Mood
Tuesday, September 25, 2007
well it's 93 days post op and I am still healing .I have a large scab on the top of my leg above the amputation site .is this normal?  the site where my leg was whacked off seems to be healing nicely.  I'm getting a bit flustered with this healing crap.seems like I've had some thing on my leg either healing or draining since jan /06. some days it feels like I will never enjoy walking across the room again. but I "keep on truckin" . this site has many kewl people as I am beginning to find out . and the info is awesome . I'm learning every day  thanks to all of you

    it took me almost 6 months to heal, i had problem with large scab once they took the initial dressing off but it was were the incision had opened from the inside due to my problems with circulation in that area. but everything did heal. just be patient with it even though it can be frustrating. you will find many people on here that all vary significantly in how fast they were walking. keep up the positive thinking it makes all the difference.
