The two blisters

Update
Bigtoe is starting to lose its top hat 😎 started early this morning.
I can't see what's underneath yet as its lifting up at the back and I'm no contortionist lol.
I'm getting the Betadine spray (iodine) under it and bigtoe is looking healthy if somewhat brown 🙄 no redness so far . I'm keeping everything crossed that bigtoe behaves itself.
Twinkle who lives next door to bigtoe is doing well too.

Ooohhhhhh get you with your posh feet. I am relieved that things are going well with them

Hope the appointment goes well. Id give biggie a smiley face, just to see the reaction!!!

Good luck with your appointment, a smile face will brighten the day up for big toe.

Thanks Diabeticliberty, Stitch and Pav.
Podiatrist has been, my flippin left foot is a bit pinker than normal grrr toes are healing well, she was worried about Bigtoe's top hat untill I explained what you the vascular nurse said
The Dopler test proved I do have circulation in my feet 🙂 just not quite as good as they'd like in my left but certainly not bad, my right one sounded good and loud
I'm now trying to get through to my GP, but summat is wrong with there phone system.

 

[Northerner]

Sounding good Ljc 🙂 Hope they fix the phones soon!

 

[Ljc]

Well I'm back on the old Anti Bs I do so hope they work

Blimey lefty is proving quite troublesome isn't she? Has the infection returned in one of the toes, or are the antibiotics just a general precaution?

Tell that foot if she doesn't start to behave she'll have the full force of the forum down on her for a good telling off

🙂 I thinks she needs a good telling off.
Yup lefties being difficulty again. I wouldnt mind so much if I treated her badly.
It seems to be another soft tissue infection, some of my foot is trying to go red and a bit swollen including bigtoe.

 

[Diabeticliberty]

Oh bugger, oh bugger oh bugger I am so sorry to hear this. Does your doctor feel that the antibiotics will work or are they not telling you? As regards a telling off for Lefty? The poor little thing has been through a lot of late so we will back off her for now. She had better however up her game and get better or else.............😡

 

[Ljc]

Thanks DB, Trouble is s I'm beginning to think that lefty likes all the attention by docs and nurses so plays up deliberately.
The GP hopes they will do the trick
Trouble is I've had C diff recently so they now have to be careful with any anti biotics , trust me to be difficult.

 

[grovesy]

Hope they do the trick

Ruddy Norah, do they now how the infection is getting in or is it hiding when they think they've got rid and then popping back up? I've got my fingers crossed for those antibiotics knocking it on the head X

 

[Ljc]

Hope they do the trick

Thanks

Thanks, ive got everything crossed too.
We know part of the problem is due to circulation, it was improved back in January it's 50% better than it was.
Though I'm beginning to think some of the infection goes into hiding.

 

[Stitch147]

Hope the anti-biotics do the trick.

 

[Ljc]

Thanks Stitch.

 

[Diabeticliberty]

Thanks Stitch.

How are you doing?

 

[Ljc]

How are you doing?

Thanks , It does seem a bit better, am keeping a very close eye on it ,though I think I will be contacting the vascular outpatients tomorrow
Oh and bigtoe has lost at lest half of its top hat and the part that's now on show looks grand.

 

[Ljc]

Good news.
Had an appointment at Vascular Outpatients this morning .
The staff were delighted with pinky and perky I don't think I told you about them but they got very poorly back in January and had to go up to heaven ,
Twinkle is now properly healed 🙂 . Bigtoe was next , it's got less than half its top hat (necrotic tissue) which is bone dry and showing signs of being even smaller tomorrow 🙂 , titch who lives at the other end to bigtoe was also very poorly in January is a happy , heathy fully intact wee one.
My foot is .......... well I don't want to tempt fate by saying what they said bout my tozes but they've been discharged 🙂😛🙂

I've got even more good news, lefty and all lefties tozes mentioned above have got more feeling in them 🙂🙂

 

[Northerner]

That sounds really good Ljc, great to hear! 🙂
