Alkymyst:

We are off to the poditrist in about an hour. I took a look at the blister. It's right besides the ulcer, I gently pressed (with clean hands of course) to see if it was pliale, solid, whatever, and I could see there was liquid inside of it.

Can't wait to see how the doc handles this one!!!

Alan's feet are fascinating. He has no feeling in his toes but the PN affects the area between the toes and the pins and needles only bother him when he lies flat on his back or sitting straight up in a chair.

We are also awaiting word from the back guy who presently has his MRI films.

I'll never forget one of the times Alan went to see Dr. Passick (at Coney Island Hospital). He was a darling. He was doing something to Alan's toenails and he just looked up and said "You don't feel anything????? really????"

Alan said "nope, you can do whatever you want". The guy just shook his head. He had never seen a guy with PN before (at least that severe anyway).

He said "If I were doing this to anybody else, I'd have to give them lidocaine".

That's PN for ya!!!!


I'll update when we come home later.
