I broke my ankle at 13 and had two pins in it. By the time I was 30 I already had no mobility in my ankle. At 57 Dr. Christensen did a total ankle replacement for me. Even though at this point (3 months) I still don't have total mobility, I have more then I did, and it is nice to be living with no pain. I was in the hospital one night, and off pain meds two days after being home due to the success of the surgery.
