I am going to Aria Health for some foot surgery this upcoming Tuesday. It's long overdue. When I was younger my feet (mostly my right) collapsed and started putting pressure on parts of my foot that there should have not been so much pressure. It started deforming my foot over the years. That's why it took me hours to find comfortable shoes that did not dig into my ankles when I was a kid. My parents just called it "low ankles." The tendon on the inside of my foot sticks out more than ot should and twitches when I am not on my feet, I have a boney knob that formed on the base of my big toe knuckle friom the friction(basically a bone callous), my big toe slants to the right, and the meta tarsial bone sticks out at a high angle. It's called a bunion.
To make matters worse, I am starting to get a freakin' plantar's wart on the heel of my other foot, the one that will be bearing all my weight for two months.
Luckily, my orthotics will be ready soon, so my bunions won't get any worse. They cost an arm and a leg. $410!

I have to have a sliver of bone removed from the meta tarsial to correct the angle and will have two pins in the bone so it can heal, they will shave off the excess bone from the knob, and they will partially sever the tendon to my big toe in two places to lengthen it.
I will be in a cast from toes to knee and on crutches for 6-8 weeks, and be out of work for 8-10 weeks. It's going to be tough not being able to go out and chill with my friends, but it will give me ample time to catch up on my art plans and finally try my new Prismacolor colored pencils. I'll really have to be extra strict with my diet so I won't put on any extra pounds. I have managed to get back down to 122 and would like to not be over 125 by the time I am healed. I don't want to go back to college not fitting any of my clothes.
