Broke my leg
I broke my tibia and fibula Saturday. The doctors preformed a surgery to have a rod and pins going from my knee to my ankle on Sunday. The doctors tried to get me to walk to go to the bathroom on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday. I went home Tuesday, and now expect me to be able to walk completely. Do you think that it's too early to be able to walk?

I think your doctor must have told you to walk with assistance as in crutches or walker. That's the right way to go. But anyone else except your doctor would be able to comment on your after seeing you & your X-rays.
