Ron,
I had the same surgery 4 years ago. Worked like a charm.
Was off feet for weekend, on crutches for 2 weeks, walking crutches another week, and then walking normally. Was able to start running in 6-7 weeks.
Take the drugs they give you, don't go up and down stairs (rough on the keister as you shuffle Quasimodo like), keep foot elevated, and don't try to do too much too soon.
Absolutely NO pain now and the only things standing between me and a 150 lb marathoner are a 6 pack and 50 lbs.
Best of luck,
Chris
