Well NOT to get too gross but the scab was turning a whitish green yesterday in a circle on the top of the scab. It EVEN scared me a bit. I DID finally go see the doctor at Kaiser and had to spend $20 for the office visit and $10 for the anitbiotics that I now have to take 4 times a day for 10 days until they are all gone BUTT (yes it’s spelled right in this case) the doctor looked at my chart and said YOU have not had a tetnus shot in some time so I had to get a tetnus shot in my left arm AND an antibiotic shot in my right hip area. THAT one hurt a bit. It numbed my whole right leg. I had to work at Long’s last night too. She was NOT happy when I told her I had to work and was going to write me a note to get out of it but there if I don’t work I don’t get paid so I had to. I have to go back today so they can look at it again. It was VERY painful as the nurse was cleaning it out and I was shocked at how much lint was on and in it. The lab said they would have the results of the culture I guess you call it within 24-48 hours so they can make sure they are batteling the infection correctly. I slept at my friends house for a little while after seeing the doctor before Long’s. I’m going home after today’s doctors visit and sleeping. I can see who gets booted off American Idol tomorrow since I KNOW Adam is safe. Tis has been a roller coaster ride so far and I hope it does not get much more expensive. I was going to try adn go to Credit Counceling but they told me yesterday I owe too much for them to help me so I MAY have to explore other options since I can’t do this any longer with these bills. I may have to file bankrupt. I have no ides how I’m going to pay for these bike repairs when I have to.
Just an update*hugs* I hope it works out. That scab thing would scare me too. :yes:

I got in the see the Doctor on Tuesday and she gave me the tetnus shot and anti-biotics shot and anti- biotic in pill for for 10 days. She also had done a culture Tuesday. Yesterday I saw another doctor he said he did not even need to see the culture resluts. They scrapped off all the old infected goo I guess I should call it and he was VERY please to see the healthy tissues underneath and said all I have to do it change the dressing every day and keep it clean and it should start the REAL healing process soon and today it has itched a bit and I have been told that is the healing sign. I still need to elevate it at home. I was able to walk on it right away this morning too instead of pampering it to get to be ableto put pressure on it.
If I had not gotten into the doctor thinking it was healing alright it could have turned into a VERY big mess that I might now have been able to come back from.
So I’m on the mendGlad to hear you are doing better. Just make sure you take ALL the antibiotics! (said in stern mother’s voice 😀 )
*Agrees with ddvm.* Otherwise you’ll be breeding super bugs and nobody wants that. Glad to hear you’re doing so much better. 🙂
