Saw the dr this morning. She did not rule out the possibility of gout but really believes it is tendinitis of the Achilles tendon. Prescribed prednisone and if it is gout I should have relief in about 2-3 days. If it is tendinitis it could be two weeks or more! Guess what I’m hoping for! It has gotten continually worse it seems every day, to the point of throbbing like a toothache today. I hate going on prednisone but she didn’t have anything else to offer, being considerate of my kidney problems and blood pressure. Fingers crossed. Janine, what did you find out about your foot? Not bad news I hope. Well, it’s a new week and I hope you all are going to have a good one. As TL puts it, keep it pumpin!

Barb I have problems with my feet and legs I took it upon myself to call a vascular dr. He was very helpful don't ignore it keep eye on it doesn't hurt to make sure it's not serious after my heart attacks I found out I had peripheral artery disease hope you feel better ❤

Thanks Gail. I think I’ll get it checked out on Monday unless it gets worse. Very sorry for the loss of your father. Was he aware that he had a heart problem?
