    Have a giant one on the back of my heel. I have an appointment with an orthopedist to basically confirm it and then shave it off on thursday. However, I was wondering if anyone has had a bone spur or anything like this done, how painful, and how much of a downtime will I have.:(

    My wife got one when she was working for the Postal service. Cut heel open, ground it down, suture back up. She was off her feet about a month. she needed to let the skin heel cause when you stand on your foot it has a tendency to pull the sutures or stitches apart. Everyone is different though. Good luck.

    Hopefully it shows up on the x-ray and I don't have to get an mri. Laying still for that long sucks, and they are too loud to go to sleep :mad:

    An interesting side note today, some people came in to get gas, and one guy tried to buy cigs, and didn't have i.d. so I told him no.

    So he went out and got one of his buddies to try and buy them for him. He had i.d. but I still knew he wasn't getting them for himself. He got ****ed when I wouldn't sell them to him. Plus he didn't speak very good english.

    Knowing my luck those people will come in and try to rob me or I'll get a shank in the stomach :D:rolleyes::eek:

    lol careful, pays to be nice sometimes even when they don't deserve to be treated with any kind of respect. Tell him you can't because you are on camera and will get in trouble.
