So on Jan 4th of this year I broke my right foot middle toe and also had a cut on it. Well they took that darn to off because it got infected and the doc stated that it was 50/50 chance he could save it. Doc also said that if he could save it it would heal infected and possibly spread to my foot and I could lose my foot or worse die of infection. So I told the nice Doc take that sucker! , needless to say I was sad and did cry before the surgery. People asked me didn’t you feel the toe hurting? I reply no because see I have bad neuropathy on my feet so I did feel it. So Now I check my blood sugar constantly and eat better. If you would like to see a picture of my toe check out my blog! Oh! and by the way I am new here! Add me we can chat!
I see that you’ve have diabetes since 1992. So almost 20 years. I’m so sorry about your toe and am glad you are doing better.
This is a challenging disease and I don’t always take it as seriously probably because it’s still new for me and I can’t see damage happening. Welcome to the site.
