I left out a bit, before I saw the doctor that told me surgery is the only way, I was consulted by another guy that was free and he scolded me because I came without the orthosis saying stuff like I don't want to get better and basically didn't even look at me or check my recovery after 3 weeks of wearing the orthosis. Told me to go to his private clinic and get a new orthosis where I decided to see any other doctor because I was put off by his attitude. I think the private clinic had a contract with the hospital I was sent to for the surgery or something.
Wow, that just adds another layer to the mess. Sounds like some doctors care more about business than patients. Glad you found someone who actually helped you!
Anyway thank God I found a decent doctor.
