I am really sorry this is happening to you. You've been the second person this week where I've heard such news.
I'm not trying to take away from Krokus, but I'm going to tell this story in hopes that others who need it may hear:
I have a friend who's diabetic. He had a blister on his foot three weeks ago-he said it went away so he thought nothing of it. Last week, he complained of foot pain. I told him to go see his doctor and he promised he would. I get a call from him Thurs night and he told me he had 4 toes amputated on his right foot.
I'm telling this story to implore every member, lurker, and browser here that if you are having health issues, please do something about it and don't let it wait. I'm going to check on my one of my teeth that has bothered me for awhile now. I didn't realize that tooth problems could extend into other areas of my body.
Everyone, please take the time to take care of yourselves. If you're between jobs, there are free clinics in almost every state. Those services are there for you until you find a job with benefits.
Krokus, I hope everything works for your best outcome and I believe you are going to be just fine. My thoughts are with you.
