Wow MM, that really does not look very good. I agree with Oldfeller, you should be seeing a specialist. Please take care of yourself.

Oldfeller, I also agree that we are all getting older and that we need to enjoy doing the things we like while we still can. A leisurely ride down the Natchez Trace will pretty much put you into my neighborhood and from here it is just another leisurely ride to the hill country. You will so enjoy the hill country. Great roads, beautiful scenery and superb food.

Mike's leg is getting worse at this point in time, not better.

Sorry Mike, it is what it is.

We are one month out from the Sisters trip and Mike has lost a hand sized patch of skin, (both layers) that is involved in that puss filled blister area.

If he gets another large raw necrotic ulcerated area, he knows what can happen. He has been there before.

Yes, he should be in the hands of a specialist or else he might be in for a rocky time over the next six months.

Time to pray, boys and girls, time to ask for help from the one that can provide it.

I'm glad to hear that you are resting and letting it heal. I hope you get some good news when you go to the doctor Thursday.

So....now that this thread has morphed into an "old guy" thread...I have become aware that my "60's" is likely to become my years to enjoy myself.
Although I have been able to do some fun things - most of my younger years have been dominated by having a professional career, and time away has been limited (Some weeks I couldn't even squeeze in a single ride).

The next 10 years are going to be dedicated to taking more rides, more weekend trips, and more time away from the office.

Yes Dave, believe me, you just have to DO IT, now....
I already told work I won’t stay on any longer.
I bought tickets to go spend time next month with my kids, after my last surgery on my face.
Then we rented a big old cabin up in the mountains in Oregon, for a week, and all the kids are coming up there in August.

My boat is all ready to have fun, looking for a 5th wheel to travel this fall and winter, just go! Wink

Mike, don’t mess with your health, I was too stupid, more like in denial, and my condition just got worse, it won’t get better.

Peace guys!

I just remembered about 12 years ago I had something similar.
Woke with a stiff knee.
It got worse, went to emergency room, they thought it was gout, no kidding.
Went and gave me some pain pills...
Got worse, went back, next day.
Gave me a leg brace as I couldn’t walk now, and some antibiotics....
Kept getting worse.
Went to another doctor, well a LPRN, and she asked me what I wanted her to do????

What the heck Angry

It was infected obviously, a big boil, ready to burst...
I told her to lance it and drain that sucker..
She did.
It oozed until no tomorrow, and stunk!

More antibiotics, with a shot to jump start it

The next day it was already getting better.

It was I belief a staph infection

I hope the Doctor knows what he is doing, strep is a bacteria not a virus.

strep is a bacteria not a virus.

I could have miss quoted him , some of the names he was referring to sounded like a foreign language ... but he sounded confident .

A+D ointment.
I've used that on babies ... and may have some somewhere. I'll ask the wife ... she knows everything ... ! Grin

I'm going to be SsssOoooo glad to be back to normal !
