after a big meal it seems my legs can't support me. the first time I took a cane but had to lean on my friend. A walker wouldn't help me.

my social worker is getting somebody to go with me to my doctor's appointment on friday which is a big relief in case my legs give me trouble.
she can get a cab for me. I will take my cane. It is up to me to exercise, lose weight and what else. I am sleeping better because of doxepin. I am still very irritable and depressed and antisocial and eating carbohydrates and eating too much. I am still getting joy from my cats. I am very worried about diabetes and I think I have a fungus. I got some cream for my toes. I think that is why my toe nail fell off. It is hard to be motivated when I feel so rotten and food makes me feel good. |

I agree bobby. may have athletes foot, I had that a few years ago because I was not changing my socks every day. IT WAS SO HARD to get rid of!!!!! You may have fungus in your toe nail. Is it yellow and striping parallel to your toe? Or did you stub your toe...trauma can make your toe nail fall off. I am so over weight myself. Starting today I am really watching what I eat. Only ate half of my plate lunch, I usually eat the whole thing.... Will post the rest of my food adventure on the diet thread if you wish to join the discussion over there. bizi

I lost the big toe nail and a new nail was underneath it and there was white color at the base of the nail. my other nail hurts but i think i stubbed it. also my foot is scaly and there is a crack and it started hurting. i bought some athlete's foot cream. I looked up diabetes's symptoms after catastrophizing all yesterday that they were going to cut off my toe. the lotion is softening the scales and the crack doesn't hurt as much. I am being very generous. the toenail only hurt on the sides when it came off.i t was a surprise.

oh bobby, heel cracks hurt so badly, you hurt all over when you walk.
Here is what I recommend: at night, put vaseline on your heel and either take a plastic bag or even a zip lock bag and put it over your foot. Then put on a sock to hold it in place. Do this every night until it goes away. Good luck! bizi

Bobby,
Actually the more I thought about it ...perhaps the crack is from moisture. Like our feet perspire and can cause cracking in between the toes and even under them in the folds of the toe. White peeling called maceration. If that is the case then you would treat it differently. You would make sure you wear clean socks everyday and wash and dry thoroughly especially in between the toes. and under the toes. A tiny smudge of anti biotic lotion, or cream, NOT OINTMENT. Good luck either way. bizi
