Both Dad and I attended the diabetic feet people this afternoon.

Pleased to pass on my feet are OK, classed as low risk and with good pulses

However, Dad was not so lucky. Apparently, he has a 'scab' on his big toe, which, she reckons, is masking an ulcer. So, he has been referred to the local hospital to have it checked out. Feet classed as high risk.

So, we will need to wait and see.................
 
Oh Hazel I am so sorry to hear this, I know how hard you have been trying to help your dad (((hugs))) xxx
 
I'm very sorry to hear this Hazel, I hope that they are able to treat the ulcer without too much fuss. Great news that your feet are in good shape!
