Having problems from a failed ankle fusion, so confused about what to do now?

I fractured my talar dome in Sept 2012, had a bone graft & ankle fusion Nov 2014 which failed. I am in horrible pain, screws r loose, severe swelling, gait off, can barely limp. Found out today the doc removed my fibula.
I am scared to death to have revision, didnt work first time. What should I do? Should I have screws removed?
