Hey guys,

I just wanted to let you know that since my vacation, my physical health has deteriorated considerably. Although my left leg continues to improve and my skin ulcer is getting close to closed, I had a wound open up in two places on the top of right foot over the last couple of weeks. The pain level has increased to the point that I have to take acetaminophen every eight hours, I am having difficulty sleeping, and have lost interest in CFS2 temporarily because it takes all of my energy to get through the day, do my job, and be a dad.

Over the past ten days, the pain has gotten measurably worse, to the point that I walk with a pronounced limp. I thought yesterday that changing from a compression boot would decrease my pain level since it was not a pressure wound, but this provided only temporary relief. So today they took a series of X-Rays to determine if I have Osteomyelitis, or a bone infection. If I do, it will require a six-week hospitalization with IV antibiotics three times a day.

I do have the desire to work on CFS2 on days when I have time and I feel good, but those days have been few and far between since I returned. Hopefully, this will end soon, because I want to finish projects I've been working on with Kdriver, Robert John, UncleTgt, and Dombral.
 
That sounds discouraging Andrew. Here's wishing you a quick and full recovery. Just said a prayer for you. Try to keep your chin up while you are on the mend.
 
Wow, Andrew. That is really distressing news to hear. Yes. Take whatever time you need. It's very difficult to concentrate on anything else when all of your energy is being taken up dealing with pain and discomfort.

Here's hoping things take a turn for the better soon.

Regards,
Chris
 
Hi Andrew,

Really sorry to hear that. As said in the past, SOH is not important, your health and well being is paramount, so take care and get well soon.

Cheers,

Shessi
 
Thoughts and prayers to you, Brother.

Do what is necessary to take care of you and your family.
 
Get well soon Andrew. Don't worry about your projects. Robert John and I are pressing on slowly and steadily with our end of them.

Very distressing news Rami. Kelti and now you. This hits me where I live as I was about the same age as you when I first encounter serious health issues. I will be keeping you in my prayers. Keep the faith. It will sustain you.
 
Jeez Andrew, doesn't sound good. Pain can be severely debilitating, so, do what you have to do to recover your health....the SOH will still be here and health and family come first. Best of luck from West Australia.
 
Very sorry to hear this news. Please put yourself and your health first that is the most important thing. I will hope a good recovery comes.
