Muji!

I am so sorry!

hugs and prayers of healing.

Muji,
That's awful! Please take care of it. Amputations seem like a scary thing to happen. I emphasize with you about too high of a dose. When I was prescribed Adderall for ADHD it aggravated my nervous system and it was too high of a dose. It shouldn't even have been combined with the other medication I was taking even though my doctor said it was okay. It really caused intense PTSD symptoms and adrenalin dysautonomia. Really I found out my ADHD symptoms weren't ADHD symptoms it was PTSD rearing its ugly head. Sending you support my friend. You deserve a break from the complications.

yikes! ! ! a nail in the foot is a rough injury, even without the other conditions.

take extra special care and don't rush the healing process. steadying support while you heal. prayers in progress. . .

my house has a wrap around porch and i use a wheelchair to keep up with the munchkins while they are playing on the porch. i call it, "the porch patrol chair." i'm thinking of having it outfitted with lights and a siren.

beep, beep. . . crazy driver coming through.

Much support given.

Medical misogyny means I'll never feel/use my right foot the same way, and my outrage at that will never subside.

Do no harm is the oath ---- and then, if they do it, *fix it*! I say.


HUGS of healing

Muji I am so sorry :( And i had a wooden tooth pick go up almost clear thru my foot when i was i think 8? My brother had been playing with toothpicks and my mom never found out why because we had to get me to the ER. Mom had called to see if they thought she could pull it out and they said no because it could have splintered, But thankfully xray showed it had not and they got it out without surgery, extremely painful for a little kid! It was a couple weeks before it healed all the way and I could walk normal again.

I 100 percent under stand diabetes and complications and neuropathy! I am losing more and more feeling in my feet and lower legs. I have it mild in my hands and lower arms. Mine is not ALL from diabetes some is from my back issues where the nerves are pinched very bad from my spinal stenosis that is severe. I developed diabetes from we believe being on antipsychotics so long mainly abilify that i was on almost 10 years. We did not find it until i took rexulti but we do believe that the abilify caused it. I have been on this kind of meds for now 18 years. Depression meds for 23 years. I HAVE to take them or i get very suicidal and have no quality of life. I do not blame my Drs or shrink because at least i was warned it could happen. Also I have PCOS and most with PCOS end up type 2 eventually. At least according to my ob/gyn. I despise my diabetes but at the same time have accepted it is here to stay and its one thing i never mess around with, never ever have i messed with not testing or taking my insulin etc. I saw what it did to my late husband and my very close friends fiance has lost a leg above the knee to gangrene about a year or so ago.

All these side effects from meds are a PAIN and the side effects from the side effects seem to be even worse than the original side effect if that makes sense! Sending hugs and prayers for you! I always worry about my feet! My late husband would get horrible ulcers on his and he even had MRSA on his legs that would NOT heal. I am very lucky i am negative for MRSA and he had it in sores on his legs before his accident and was colonized with it after the accident from so many people handling him at the scene of the accident without being able to sanitize first, it was a very severe accident the guy that hit him was driving at over 90mph and tboned in his door when my late husband was turning at a green light, the other guy had a red light and it was 55mph speed limit. Always here if you need to chat to someone who gets it!

I really appreciated your understanding, y'all, how such a small wound in my foot could still concern me in a bigger way since I'm a diabetic. It's feeling better today, though it's still there and I'm putting alcohol on it and then keeping it dry so as to prevent any infection. I've gotten out of being confined to a wheelchair twice this year, and I don't want to let this put me back in it. Thanks for your support.

Overnight the wounds in my foot took a turn for the worse, so I'm back to square one as to walking. No walking today. Sigh.

(((((Mujica))))
Here with you
I’ve been having some tough days too (injury & pain stuff, migraines, dissociation ect.) you have my empathy for sure. I’m sorry you’re having a tough time too

Keeping you in my prayers for sure
Gentle hug <3

Sorry you've had it tough, too, lately, lilmiss. Let's get thru this week together. Grr.

Have you had an up to date Tetanus shot Muji?

Big hug... I'm sorry to see how much you've been struggling of late..... xo

Because of the hole in my left foot in the ball of the sole and how slowly it's healing, walking went out the window this week until today. Today I needed to go grocery shopping, so I put a couple of bandaids on it and hobbled around the store until I got the job done. But now that I'm back home, I took the bandaids off to find I'd dealt my healing a setback. The scab came off, and it's an open wound once again. Argh.
