This is the entry to a medical building here. I am having some foot problems. Podiatrist office inside. My thoughts were that I may have to sell one to pay for this. Maybe two.20190819_134551.jpg

I’m guessing you are saying payment for the foot ....... comes from sale of a car......... if so ....... sorry.......the adage ....... without your health you nothing..... comes to mind....... but l know that does not make it any easier....... hope you are better soon

Plantar Faciitis? If so Cortizone shots and stretches helped me a lot. Good luck I could barely walk last fall
No. Dealt with that about 20 years ago. Two shots in one side and three shots in the other. Took about a year and a half to clear up. I know one guy from tractor collecting that had his feet operated on for that about the same time. Still doesn't walk well.

Current problem is the right foot having an infection in the ball of the foot. Diabetic. Skin got weak and cracked letting infection get in. About a month ago the foot swelled up quickly and the redness started traveling on a Saturday. The local clinic has a PA there on Sunday afternoons so I went in and got some antibiotics. Went through them and a presciption for another type so far. Foot is looking better. Doctor would like to operate and work on the joint between the big toe and the next bone. Not a good time to be laid up for me now if I can heal it up with other treatment.

At today's visit the podiatrist just cleaned up the dead skin around the wound and said come back in two weeks. My blood pressure was up about 30 points today. I think that was caused by the attractive RN that had her chest in my face while taking my temp when the blood pressure was being tested.

Sorry about joking about your appointment. Didn't know it was serious.
