Hi, I pulverized my calcaneal bone on my right foot 20 years ago. During those years the arthritis was horrible and I lived on ibuprophin. From the ibuprophen I developed a bleeding ulcer and have recently had the fusion surgery. Your foot will never be the same so watch your weight, this is hard when you cannot exercise much, so eat healthy, low fat, low carb, high protein. Go to a pain doctor and get medication, you will have a better quality of life and get a disabled parking card, you need it. Also a recumbent exercise bike, pool and hot tub will help keep you healthy. Get a script from your doctor for the hot tub, you will be able to deduct all of it, good luck, Karen
