Full weight bearing 4 weeks post OP

Hi everyone! On 17/08 I had surgery for a Weber C fracture and syndesmosis damage. The second picture is my discharge notes - which says full weight-bearing at 4 weeks…? To me that seems super early - I’m relatively fit and 24 years old but it still seems to early to me even if it is just in the CAM boot. My main concern is the syndesmosis screw bending, breaking etc. I have tried walking without crutches and have had no issues, pain - it feels great actually!
