I have been in constant communication with the dermatologist on my case for my feet. It’s been a lot of red tape! It’s quite frustrating and it makes me a little sad about the state of our medical affairs.
I have been dealing with this since April 19. That was my first dermatologist appointment. Then I saw another dermatologist when my pressure sores surfaced! Remember that my Mom asked for an antibiotic at both of those appointments because she knew that I am a slow healer and at that point of my June appointment, I already had open wounds. but again, red tape!
She wanted to catch the infection before it got out of control. But, alas, here we are! And does it hurt!!!
But I still have persisted in conversing with the doctor in hopes of getting a home care nurse to come to my house. Well, on June 28, all of this red tape has finally been cut through and a home care nurse called me this morning. She is going to call tomorrow morning to set up a time to come out to my house.
I told my Mom today that she is running point for this appointment because she’s doing everything and I am just the feet.
