Post #350 .....
No news to report yet .... I've not heard anything back from Dr. B's office. At about 2:00pm today I couldn't stand it anymore, so I called his office and was going to leave a message for his nurse. His nurse was with some patient & I thought I was leaving a message w/the receptionist, but she went and gave his nurse my message while I waited on the phone. The receptionist gal told me that Dr. B had not spoken w/the radiologist yet and that his nurse would remind him about it again when he returned from surgery. Dr. B is at the West Co. campus the remainder of the week, so it is likely that nothing will happen on this now until Tuesday or after of next week.
I did talk to another friend that is a doctor & she told me that bone infection typically does not spread into the blood or other places, so that is partially why no one is in a rush. Supposedly, people walk around with chronic bone infection sometimes a long time before they know they have it .... many times the symptoms are very minimal.
I had a lot of foot pain today at work - not sure what that was about. Toes are still laying flat and the thankfully the positioning still looks good.
The bummer is that we may be waiting for nothing, if there is no infection! Patience, patience .... it is hard. It is going to be a long holiday weekend .........

Jenny, I feel your aniexty, the hardest part of all of this is waiting, it is pure torture, and they act as if it is no big deal. It is easy for everyone to tell you to be patient let them try to go through it, I kind of know I have had a similar mountain to climb you know what I am talking about it is not easy. We will be praying and thinking of you. Waiting patiently with you for the next update. Love, Ted,Carol,Teddy
