july of this year my boyfriends lower leg was crushed at work - shattered tib-fib 3 surgeries including a fasciotomy.. he has been going to PT. he's making progress we are keeping the faith so to speak.. the problem is when we go to the Dr. for rechecks (the surgion) we don't get any straight ans. from him for example do you expect a full recovery will he be able to return to work .. his response was he maybe able to return to work in 3 monts but my crystal ball is foggie (this was to the comp. nurse she comes to every visit) he also said that he may have 95% of his use back in 5 years after he has been telling us he will fully recover.. so anyone who has a very specific ? idea i can ask or has delt with a inj. like this that can give me any ideas of how to word the questions anything you may think that may help i would be very gratefull
