[QUOTE="sbfireman, post: 2828355, member: 90267"] So I'm at point where it looks like my options might be either fusion or replacement. I dont want to stop packing up and hitting the hills, returning with a heavier pack so I'm looking for anyone with any experience to share. The surgeon says you cant tell the difference walking down the hallway post fusion - I tell him thats great but my quality of life depends on getting out and hunting (mostly California Mediterranean / Oak Savanah rollings hills with some horrible yucca slopes and the occasional billy goat trail). Haven't found anyone local that has the same requirements so I'd be grateful for anyone willing to share. Post here or DM or I can share my cell. Some deets - 64 years old - still working (in fire) - tried previous tendon repair. Currently use Kenetrek Everstep ortho boots but also have HanWags, Whites, and Kenetrek mountain guide boots. Kifaru pack (about 35-45-ish pounds) and trekking / walking sticks Thanks in advance all Michael [/QUOTE]
