I have had quite a time the past five days or so.
A couple of weeks ago, I made an appointment with a podiatrist to trim a callous on my right foot. I had a rather bad one removed last summer, and I was encouraged to return for a "trim" should it start growing again.
When I noticed it growing again, I placed my call. But, in the course of last week, it nearly tripled in size (thickness of dead skin). And, by Saturday, a blister had ulcerated alongside it.
I hobbled in Monday afternoon for my appointment. The doctor is a really nice lady, and she explained what she needed to do. She cut the dead skin off the ball of my foot (as much as was safe to do), and then removed the skin over the ulceration. It was clean, but needed care with ointment.
So, I am now back on a 10-day antibiotic regimen, taking two different ones twice a day with meals.
I nap a lot, but happily, there haven't been any bad or upsetting or silly dreams...yet.
