Q: 

Serious pain 11 yrs after ankle fusion

I am seeing a bone trauma Dr at North Shore​ in Chicago.
I am terrified that my only option will be amputation. Is there something new since my original surgery done at Rush Medical University 2007. At that time I was told that this procedure would only last 7 - 10 yrs then my next option would be amputation. I see this Dr in 2 weeks and for the past 6 months I have been living in such pain and fear. Do you know if there will be another option for me?
