Gemme, you are probably correct about not meeting nutritional needs with food intake. I am going to do better. Thanks for your response and I also thank the ones who left considerate notes in reputation comments. I have really been fried about this for the past couple of weeks. The pain keeps increasing ... plus my foot and calf swelled to the point I could not bend my foot much. And it was so shiny, needed shades to look at it.
I feel confident this specialist can fix it. No cutting today, appt next week for tests ... he said he needs roadmap and that is why more testing ... very fixable but not a quick fix... I go see him again next week 2 days after tests. I am quoting doctor --->>> "wound is in an oxygen starved place and being that deep, it won't ever heal by itself"
Who could have known besides medical people? I have never heard of that before now.
Glad now I went ... pain has been quite annoying and really worsening lately.
Oh... and if anyone got the idea I was "skerred" to show up for the appt today, I wasn't really afraid ... only pretending. LOL! ��
Honestly, I need to quit reading so much medical info online. Some is correct, some is not. I don't know the difference.
I came home and am now watching new puppy Jeffrey and Jennifer wrestle in the yard. Kevin is right here beside me. He knows it is too hot for him to exert himself. I am so blessed to have such good children.
Happy Day to All of You
