Hope it heals quickly for you! I'll be sending healing thoughts your way! Thanks Denise, I got them. Had to go to our minor injuries unit where the doc said it's got infected and is tracking across my leg - oh joy!!! He wanted me to have oral antibiotics but because I am sensitive to so many he gave me a topical one. But, he said if it doesn't settle by tomorrow with this I have to go back. It's so painful walking cos it's just like a huge lump on my leg. Because it's Easter here everythwre is closed but for one pharmacy this eveing, open for an hour at 5pm. Have to go get in line now I think heh heh. IP Logged

Yesterday I felt great, but this morning I'm back to not so great. But it's going to be a packed week, so I have to keep working no matter how I feel. Thank God I'm mostly done!

My leg is still in 'orrible mode, I'm sensitive to a lot of meds and the one I have which I'm ususally ok with is making me out of breath. I have to put up with it though to get this infection gone. Doc said it'll be about 7 days unless it decides to go ballistic in which case I have to go back IP Logged

Before my Dad died, he was bed ridden due to a stroke and developed bad bed sores on his legs which got worse and worse because of his diabetes and the doc gave him some really strong antibiotics which almost killed him. Sure hope everyone feels better soon!!!!! I'll send along some groovy vibes to help y'all along ... Yeah, I'm a smutty-minded perv - what of it? WWW IP Logged

Reply #22 - Mar 21st, 2020 at 2:37pm Print Post I hope everyone is keeping well with the outbreak of COVID-19. Things in the Northeast USA are kind of crazy, but not completely out of control, other than the TP shelves being empty most of the time. Here in RI, we have 54 cases as of this morning, 3/21/20. Both my wife and I are still working as we are considered essential reporters. Jan works at the Outpatient oncology clinic at RI Hospital, and I maintain the state's 800 MHz public safety radio system. With remote access to the system, I can do most of my work from right here at my desk. Most of the sites are um-manned, so my risk for exposure is low. By comparison my wife is in the high risk category. Hopefully, no one here is being affected, either by the illness, or the economic impact. Stay safe everyone! What do you mean, we're out of coffee!

Reply #23 - Mar 21st, 2020 at 4:14pm Print Post I've got my annual bout of bronchitis just as gardening season starts. Luckily I work from home and hubby is retired. I'm hoping the people around here who are much higher risk than I am are able to stay safe and well. I'm in Washington State and I'm just not bothering with the stats.
