bongobobny Posted November 16, 2010 Share #1 Posted November 16, 2010 Sunday I stepped on a rofing nail around 1:0 and with my periferal neuropathy I didn't feel it. I noticed it around 5:30 when I came in for the day and my sock was stuck to my shoe. As I was walking across the floor I noticed I was leacving a small blood trail. Monday morning all seemed reasonably well so I went to work. Big mistake. As the day progressed I felt sicker and aicker, and when I got home my toe that got the nail in it was all inflamed. Called my doctor last night and he gave me a prescription for some antibiotics. Went to the doctors today, and it does not look good. They gave me a shot of a second antibiotic and a prescription for a third antibiotic. I'm staying home the rest of the week on DB, and have to go back to the doctor's on thursday. I really do not want to loose another toe, this one is on the other foot, so please pray for me!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bongobobny Posted November 16, 2010 Author Share #24 Posted November 16, 2010 Many thanks to all of you!! I was cleaning out my gardening shed when it happened. There were a few nails left over from when I did the roof on it, and I just swept them into a garbage bag from the shelf. One must have missed the bag, and just my luck I stepped on it!
