Good Morning all

Good Luck Mikel! I'm headed to the doctor myself today. Yuck! I hope they do whatever helps that leg of yours and that you have peace in your heart through it all. Take care

Hope all goes well with your appointment today.  Be honest with the doctor about how you've been feeling and that you need help with your pain control.  Also, don't be afraid to let him know how your mental state is at times.  It might help to write down any questions you have.

Let us know how it goes!

Well friends my doc says this , its not cellulitus because I've been on anti-biotics without it really helping in addition I don't have all th other symptoms and my leg was scanned for a blood clot and there is none ,It is not dermatalogical , there is no obvious reason for my condition mri shows a swollen leg but doesn't reveal a cause . The next course is I'm seeing a vascular specialist , it may be circulation . My leg actually felt better on the way to the appt , but Ifind myself in the hard position of not knowing why I feel the way I do . I'm trying to embrace the uncertainty ofmy health and of life , a tough job indeed .Accepting that my new job is trying to get better health wise and emotionally , I need to show I'm up to this , so I'll be asking for your help .Thanks in advance .

Hi, Mikel,
I'm so glad you got to the doc, although wish you had an answer. But your statement about having to accept uncertainty not just with our health but with life is profound indeed. Easier said than done, this "acceptance" thing. Thank goodness we can help one another along this path.

It sounds like it could be lymph glands not working properly? But as I'm not a dr I'm just going by friends with similar issues, as to the why I wouldn't hassard a guess.

You've really been put through he wringer Mikel, I sincerely hope you don't have to wait too long to see the vascular guy and get some answers soon.

Best wishes, golitho
