News - Health Issue Update #3
Added 2021-05-15 04:35:04 +0000 UTCHi.
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

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

2021-05-15 14:37:05 +0000 UTCTake 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.

2021-05-15 06:55:49 +0000 UTCGet well soon, and if needed, just take a total break.
Rebelyon
2021-05-15 06:25:40 +0000 UTCJust do the full course of meds. Ending up in the hospital is not that entertaining and IV antibiotics suck.
