I AM A 36YR OLD MALE. I HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH BOTH OF MY FEET SINCE AGE 12. I WENT TO A SURURE MADE ME QUIT FOR GOOD. I HAVE A GREAT METABOLISM AND CAN GAIN OR LOSE 10LBS IN A WEEK.GEON WHEN I WAS 16YRS OLD TO SEE WHAT COULD BE DONE FOR MY FEET THAT I INHERITED FROM MY GRANDMOTHER. THE SURG SAID IT WAS HEREDITARY,BUT SINCE I PLAYED SPORTS,ACTUALLY MULTIPLE SPORTS FROM THE TIME I COULD RUN TIL MY FIRST STRESS FRACTURE AT 16, THEN AFTER IT HEALED INTO COLLEGE 1 YR,THEN STRESS FRACT. SORRY ABOUT TEXT IT S MESSED UP. WHAT IM SAYING IS THE SURGEON SAID HE COULDNT DO MY FOOT SURGERY. A RECONSTUCTIVE WOULD HAVE TO DO THEM ONE AT A TIME. THIS WILL CONSIST OF BREAKN AND RESETTING EVERY BONE IN EACH FOOT AND SHAVE THE LARGE BUNIONS ALSO OFF EACH OF MY BIG TOES. MY ? IS THAT ITS BEEN 20 YRS SINCE THIS DIAGNOSIS. EACH FOOT HE SAYS WILL TAKE ME BEING IN A WHEELCHAIR FOR 6 TO 8MNTHS AND CRUTCHES FOR MANY WKS AFTER THAT. HE CANT DO BOTH FEET AT THE SAMETIME SO IN REALITY ILL MORE THAN LIKELY BE DOWN APPROX 2YRS. IS THIS STILL A CURRENT PROGNOSIS,EVEN AFTER 20YRS? IM ADD AND CANT SIT FOR 10MINS. ALWAYS HAVE BEEN XTREMELY ACTIVE. WHATS THE DEAL, DOC?
