My heel is no longer under my foot
I had a rare form of cartilage that I was told formed tumors in my right ankle at the age of 8. After removing them they decided that the best thing for me would be an ankle fusion. During that fusion they took 4" of my fibia out in 04'. Now 14 years later my ankle is no longer in right position and my heel has moved at least 2" off to the right of my ankle. Now when I walk it feels like I'm walking on fire and pins. Have you Ever heard of removing 4"s of fibia for an ankle fusion?
