Correct me if I'm wrong, but I seem to remember that Alan has diabetes...... and if so, I don't know what locally applied honey would do to his blood sugars, but I'm sure there are others here who could help with that.
Alan has NEVER had diabetes in his life. I am the one in the family with diabetes (under control thank god for that).

Alan has idiopathic PN (which they now are certain is linked to his back problems).

I have never heard of so much information about dressings, second skin.

CAN'T THANK YOU GUYS ENOUGH.

Going to print all this out and bring to podiatrist today.

THANKS THANKS THANKS.

What would I ever do without you guys??

Love ya
