I've been wondering too. I heard from him on Sunday evening but nothing since. I really hope he was able to get into the doctor yesterday.

He's really active on here. My guess is that no news means that he is under lock and key somewhere!

I know he was going to the ER. insure hope he is ok

I've been wondering, as well. Pray that he is getting the care he needs.

Thank you Ladies, so much for the caring. Am back home and we are waiting for some results and next step forward - good news is that the swelling is down to almost normal and the pain level is zero

I am really shocked at the outpouring and humbled as well
Peace

You are kind of important to us! Trish

Happy to hear you are OK. Hope you continue to stay that way!

Hey Bluedogs,

It's WeeWers and I'm so glad that you felt well enough to post. You are ALWAYS so kind and supportive to all of us. You are a dear man.
I pray your healing continues until you are in perfect health.

Have you ever thought looking up a "Healing Room" in your area? I've known of people whose sight was restored, stage 4 cancer gone, limbs grow out. I am *so* looking forward to go to the Healing Room in my area. I just have not been able to leave the house.

*So* good to hear from you. We all love you!!!

love,
WeeWeers

Wishing you the best.

Whew!!! so glad to hear the good news about Papa Bluedogs! Glad you are doing better!!!

To My Companions:

Sorry to be so late with the information relative to my foot issue. The right foot was looked at in the ER where it was determined that inflammation was presence along with discoloration. They ran 2 sonograms and a Doppler scan on the leg up to my "belt line". Nothing was found. Blood was drawn and the results came back without adverse findings. The ER doctor called my cardiologist and arrangement have been made for me to see him next week for follow-up (and a look at the left leg). Antibiotics have been presubscribed for 10 days along with elevated relaxation of the leg. That is pretty much the story of what happened. The doctor did admit there was evidence of Metatarsalgia and suggested that I discuss that with my rheumy which I will do in July (next visit).

The thing that started all this was the extreme pain in my big toe (right leg) and the feeling of walking on rocks. The toe is still sensitive to twisting or hard walking and the sensation of walking on rocks is still there, just not as noticeable.

There ya go. Thank you all for the well wishes and the concern. It is sincerely appreciated.

Peace to us all

I guess maybe it's good news that this isn't a NEW problem. Don't know about you, but I prefer to deal with my medical catastrophes one at a time. I'm glad it doesn't seem to be a blood clot or infection. Did they check for gout?

Thanks and Boy Do I understand - the right leg had no clot but right foot does have the infection based on the doctor's determination. Left leg has no infection per say, but does exhibit blockage based on what I went through last November. Either way, I am going to have to deal with both circulatory issues and RA.

I would prefer to deal with them one at a time, but in this case, it is what it is and I will trust my medical team.
Thank you for both asking and sharing.
Peace to us all
