Ride or Die Xtreme cr107 Posted October 14, 2005 I am still recovering from my 6 inch spiral fracture in my tibia and had to get a cast to my hip. Once it starts to get better than they make you do weight bearing excerises by having you walk on it. It is a long road Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ok, this happened today? And you are out of the hospital already? I call BS.. That is some major surgery. You can't get out of a hospital in a couple hours. You have to stay overnight to watch for infections and whatnot. I think I need 2 walking boots, because it's getting thick in here, bro. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
450duner Posted October 17, 2005 why would i lie about it? they let me go home only because my parents asked them to let me because we cannot afford extremly high doctor bills at this point in time. i have to go back every other day for check ups. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ride or Die Xtreme cr107 Posted October 18, 2005 Everthing he is saying is true about the recovery time and plates. I am still recovering from my broken leg that happend 2 months ago. Atleast now i can do awesome wheelies in a wheel chair. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
