Ross said:I'm afraid to say not good. I run out of antibiotics tomorrow and this thing is still very swollen and painful. I've been keeping it up as much as I can stand to lay around and it's just not shrinking any at all. I'm convinced that there is something else in addition to the cellulitis going on, but I've never had it before either. I'm seriously thinking there may be a clot in there and he's just dismissing it over the infection.
Yes I know. All along the Doctor has simply slide me into his schedule to look at this. Tommorow I'll call and let him know that I'm out of Augmentin and still not happy. I'll then ask about an ultra sound and see if a medrol dose pak wouldn't help some with the swelling.Susan BAV said:Now what advice would you give any of us if we wrote that to you? It would be good advice, kindly given.
Will you please keep us posted, Ross? We care.
Right now, it's so bad, I can't get it on, plus it's too painful at the moment.Nancy said:Ross, has anyone suggested compression hose? Ask the doc about that. When Joe had cellulitis, and he got it quite a bit, they always suggested it for the swelling. I wouldn't do it without the doctor's say-so though.
