Guest guest Posted September 26, 2002 Report Share Posted September 26, 2002 Oh Dearest Tess, I am glad to hear that the surgery went well. If you do end up feeling the pain, then I hope that it is not too bad for you. Please don't feel that your toe is a small matter. Having worked in the med field, I know that a foot wound for a diabetic is a serious matter. Make sure to follow dr.'s orders and keep an eye on it. I hope that the infection goes away and that it heals quickly and completely. Love and Hugs Stacey in PA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 26, 2002 Report Share Posted September 26, 2002 Hello Tess, I just want to remind you to take good care of that toe so it remains a small matter. With Caring and Love, Your Neighbor to the North in WA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 26, 2002 Report Share Posted September 26, 2002 Tess, Your toe may be little in size, but it sure can cause a lot of pain. Infections can be very serious in someone with diabetes, so please take good care of it. I hope the pain isn¹t to bad when the anesthesia wears off. I had half of my big toe nail removed when I stubbed my toe on a stump under the water and had a large splinter under it, and remember well how painful it was.
