Re: Toe infection

[Guest guest]

Add my name to the list of toe infections. Last February I was walking too

much in Atlantic City. Got a toe rub that became infected. Thought it was

all better after antibiotics but it went into my toe bone in May. Thought I

would have to go to hospt. for IV antibiotic, get bone removed or scraped.

But, thank God, it got better after two month on Cepro and following it on

x-rays.

toe is still numb.

Wow. I can't believe this is still going on Ursula! I'll say a

prayer for Macey that this gets better asap. Is she in school right

now, or home hospital? Send her good wishes from me!
