Hi.

Sorry, I didn't want to make any more posts about my leg, but I need to give you an update as this is going to affect things for this week.

The leg hadn't improved at all so I went to see my doctor again on Wednesday. Latest diagnosis is cellulitis and the treatment is a week long course of antibiotics. However, I'm supposed to keep the leg elevated and immobile as much as possible during this time.

The doctor told me to lay in bed, but I can't stay in bed for a whole week so I'm sitting in a chair with the leg raised.

While I can still work, it's awkward and uncomfortable sitting like this which is making it difficult. Unfortunately, that means that progress is going to be slower this week. Sorry.

Thanks,DB

Don't need to apologise, DB. Your health is more important. We'll just have to be patient. You take care of yourself.

Just do the full course of meds. Ending up in the hospital is not that entertaining and IV antibiotics suck.

Rebelyon

Get well soon, and if needed, just take a total break.

do what you need to get better

Thanks, Helge. Hopefully you won't have to wait too much longer.

I'll make sure to complete the full course, William. Thanks. 👍

If it is cellulitis, that can be quite serious. Take care of yourself.

DarkBlue

Thanks, Raife. I will do. 👍

As said above. Health first. Take care and take your time to recover.

Take care of yourself first. Pre-existing conditions seem to be a magnet for the virus, so best take care of this properly. Any medicine works better with rest and no stress, so take a vacation from Hillside. I'm sure the stalker wants what's best for you just like we do, they'll wait for you to get back on the job.

We all want you to get better. Don't worry about us while you're on the mend, we'll be right here when your leg is well again.

Gosh I'm sorry your having so many health issues lately. Hope things get better soon.

Health first - Please! Your efforts to get back to good health will reward all of us - so, from my purely selfish perspective :), Please take the time to get your health back!!

DarkBlue

Thanks, Sim. I hope so too. 👍

That sucks pal, antibiotics are no fun either. You just focus on yourself and get well, do only what you are able. We will be here after do not worry about that 😀

Thanks, Puma. And yes, the antibiotics have made me a bit sick, but nothing too bad. Cheers.
