Thanks for all of the offlines, cards, e-mails, prayers, thoughts and well wishes. I am starting to feel half way human again and hope to be back to terrorizing and pilfering chocolates from all of you soon. As far as what exactly I had, all I know is that the doctor's called it Cellulitist, which is a pretty broad term for an infection from a bug bite, spider bite, blister, scratch, etc. Now personally I hate that term. Cellulitist has to do with a skin infection but to me it sounds too much like that word "cellulite". I have visions of all of you scratching your heads and thinking, 'Vic is suffering from moldy cottage cheese thighs?'
But things are improving and I finish up the last of the anti-biotics this week. I will be glad for that as I have had a few side effects from them, one of which I learned was that it can cause problems with tendons, which explains the ankle tendon messed up now. The blood tests came out okay, there were a couple that weren't in yet but the doc seems to think everything is in order. I am a bit anemic though, which didn't surprise me, I am not a big meat eater.
Stink Pot the cat has bounced back and forth between, sprawling on or near me constantly or total aloofness, (yeah...she is the same as ever).
I hope to catch up with your blogs this week, and find out what has been going on in your lives. I can't have ya having too much fun without me! lol.....Take care and thanks...
