Deb Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 Well gals, I'll be "out of order" for a week or so. I'm having some foot surgery. I've been fighting some neuropathy in my right foot, not from diabetes, but from totally abusing my foot digging out 15 or so privet-like hedges this past spring. I'm darn near over that, but I have this wamping big ganglion on the top of my foot and there is no way that can stay and me wear boots in the fall. Hopefully, it's not around the artery that's below it. Atleast I'll get off work for a week:). Gotta wear one of those boots, throu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deb Posted July 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 (edited) Update on the foot. I had surgery ...and...no ganglion! Apparently when I dug out all those privet-like hedges I really messed up some of the muscles in my foot. Literally pushed them out of place. So....one had gotten pushed up and kinda balled up on the top of my foot and in the process put pressure on some nerves. The Doc was a little surprised and had to change his game plan a little. He had to go deeper and work with the muscle and he actually had to trim part of the muscle. I seem to have full function of my foot, toes and flexibility. There is a small spot on the top of my foot that is numb, but it doesn't seem to effect anything. The worst part was the pain meds!! My bowels hate them. Needless to say I stopped that within 36 hours. I am very happy with the outcome! ALSO, I turned in my notice to retire!!!!!! August 1, I'm officially retired! WOOHOO!
