the first week i couldnt go out..but when i went for the follow up , i had to wear a sandal..it's a bit annoying since it's cold now..everything is good as long no pressure on the wound area..

Well if they are normal and we know what they are, she will probably leave small ones be... I am going to have to think through this shoe problem.. What did you wear?

hi..after almost 20 days..i'm really feeling better..it needs at least a month or two until i can do everything normally, like running etc.. the shoes are the trick, even though i'm a SAHM, it was so painful to wear shoes at first..wishing your daughter an easy and fast recovery..i read somewhere that lumps are common in diabetic people..which is not my case..but hopefully they won't return back..take care of yourself and your daughter..

they were afraid it is growing from the bone out but the MRI showed the opposite..they are assuming either a nail is growing under skin (sounds stupid) or a fibre mass..what made them a bit concerned is that i lost sense with toe for about a month back in april but damn the health system even with losing sense they didnt give me an earlier date..

Well I hope if surgery is necessary it isn't in 2012! So didn't they give you any idea? Did they at least rule out the terrible "C" ???

it all started 6 months ago..took 2 MRIs..several blood tests ..3 specialists opinions..none knew what it is.. but they all agreed on surgery!! the first surgery date given is supposed to be on september 2012..yes 2012..i agreed to do it in another city(i live in niagara falls..all booked up) in order to get it removed earlier (next month)..
the first two months was so painful..it started growing on the big toe on the side..then it stopped growing and became less painful but noticeable and embarrassing ..
i will let you know what happen later hopefully.."dont worry" ..hopefully nothing serious and at least get to know what it is unlike me..

Really? Did you have a MRI too? How long have you had it? Is it growing?
