How long did you live with the pain before making this decision? Did you decide on amputation because of the better prospects for mobility on a prosthetic leg versus a fused ankle or was it more about eliminating the pain for certain?
I have constant pain from a crushed ankle a couple years ago....my doctor says a fusion may be in my near future. I wonder if I will be making a similar decision.....
