Here we go again
May. 4th, 2022 05:50 pmSo, three doctors blew off my concern that my foot was reinfected (or still infected). Third even questioned whether I had an infection in the first place. Fourth, a week later... told me to go home, back up and head for the ER again.
I'm on a regular care floor this time, since other than my foot looking like a ham I basically am not sick. Much more comfortable and relaxed-- fewer tests, freedom to move around. However today they drained an abscess from the foot so now I'm not mobile again.
The foot's in definite trouble. Direst possibilities are very dire. However, as of tonight I'm on targeted antibiotics rather than broad spectrum, and that plus the drainage has ever chance of doing good things.
And I've had two more angel-caretakers, and one of rhem is my day shift tech again tomorrow. Also discovered the alternative food menu, which makes life more tolerable.
