Kind of freaking out.

My surgery is on Monday in less than two days. Yesterday, friday I woke up with awful pain in my right foot that as of yet has not gone away. I'm really worried because I really can hardly walk to the bathroom at the moment that they might call off the surgery because of my bad foot.. does anyone know if this will be an issue? Really freaking out honestly.

    It could be plantar fasciitis, feels terrible. But a Doctor would be best to sort it out. Congrats in advance on your surgery!

You might go to a walk-in clinic or urgent care if they have one in your area and get it checked out. If it's gout, there is medicine that will immediately stop the attack.

I agree with the plantar fasciitis comment. Cortisone shot should help relieve the pain in no time. I would wait until after the surgery though.

I went to the er today.. they put an ace bandage on it, which I'm wearing now and said it might be a sprain.. no broken bones thankfully. She also said there were signs of degenerative disease from carrying all my weight but hopefully that will get better.. 11 1/2 hours till I'm in the hospital.. thanks all for the replies

Stress fracture and now your surgery. See even your skeleton thinks Your Surgery,is a good idea. Spot on the Victory Bench being saved for YOU!?❤?

Sounds more like a "Hey buddy you need to get this WLS now" situation. Just remember, you'll be given pain killers, those will help that foot feel better too.

Hope you feel better and good luck on your Surgery!
