RandyPacheco 0 #1 February 25, 2004 Serious ankle injuries: There might be hope. After four years of severe arthritic ankle joint pain from a jumping accident I had a Total Ankle Replacement. The TAR technology has been slow to come around. Out of eleven different TAR’s I thought the Buechel-Pappas Total Ankle Prosthesis was the best. I’m six months post-op now and walking with little pain and improving every day and I’m back jumping. Please feel free to contact me if you would like more information or go to http://www.anklejoint.com/ and do some research.Blue Skies Randy Pacheco Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkydiveNFlorida 0 #3 February 26, 2004 Yes, i'm also curious as to what caused you to need a total ankle replacement. Obviously, more than a sprain. Please post details. thx. Angela. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mfrese 0 #5 February 26, 2004 Hey Randy! Glad to hear you're up and about, amigo. I heard you had the replacement done, but have been real busy and haven't had a chance to get over to SMB to see how everyone is doing. Keep us posted, and I'll try to get Lynn and I over there in the next few weeks to catch up. Take it easy!
