so that is why I have not been as active here. You would think once I start taking Antibiotics and such for this infection I would not feel so tired, and no energy. Makes me glad I went to the Doctor when I did.
My wounds on my right leg got infected and my leg was really draining. It first started when my leg got really swollen and then it started draining. It was even hurting a lot more no matter what I tried as well. So I knew it was time to get something for it, and called the Doctor, and if you read my last discussion you know the Hell I went thru there.
I just have been feeling really tired, and no energy. Been doing a lot of sleeping and just taking it easy. Even had to call off Friday from work, and hope I do not have that much backlash on Monday when I go to work because of this. If I do at least my Doctors wrote notes explaining what I need to be doing, so hopefully he will not think I just faked it.
I am starting to feel maybe a little better, but Prayers are appreciated and I promise to send more updates as I can.

Always refer to the doctor whenever you are feeling not well. It is the best way to overcome your illness. You need to be extra careful with your food intake as well at this moment. I hope your boss would understand and be considerate with your current situation. I will pray for you and hope you will recover soon...

It has been an uphill battle trying to get to where I am feeling better. I wish that this would end. If you have read some of my other discussions since this one, you will know what I have been enduring. It has not been Fun.

Well, if you have been following the other discussions that I have been posting you will see this did lead to a lot more, but I feel I am better off now and in more control, and have a doctor who is willing to listen. It does get tiring though with having this pain all the time.

Tina,
I really hope that you are feeling much better and that your condition will improve with time.
I've read a lot of your posts and just could not find the words to respond except to remember you in prayer. Out of it all, I hope that you have an online resource center to refer and understand your physical condition. On top of it, I wonder if you have a support group which you can join to further enhance some form of communication with people and experts of this condition.
I hope that all will be well and I wish you all the best and a smooth recovery here.

That's sad to hear Krause. I wish you all the best in your healing process and hope that you can find some relief from your leg soon. I like to read your discussions. I hope you get well soon, that's coming all the way from Australia.

I hope that the antibiotics start helping soon. I certainly hope that your employer accepts the doctor's notes about the problem and doesn't take any negative action against you. If they do, then they need to have their head examined. It is obvious that you have a problem and not many people could fake what you have been going through. I hope you feel better soon!

Life is not easy. We must try to make life easier, even though life is not easy. It's human nature, looking for can not be felt now. While was busy, and a lot of work, have a desire to rest. While being relaxed, and there is no work, have a desire to be busy, and a lot of work.

Take it easy here. It is your life and it is your body. So, would your insurance take care of everything, and be helpful to pay your medical bills? So many people have medical insurance problem, and they can't afford the bill. They rather sit at home and die.

Hi Tina 
For starters I am very happy to hear you took off work on Friday, you need this my friend. You have been through so much lately with your health and the ever stressing wait for testing results. I am sorry your leg infection has taken such a big toll, it surely has to be exhausting.
Do take Monday, as smooth and slow as possible. Just simply do the best you can as you do not want to over-stress. They know you are a valuable employee therefore, they will understand that you cannot dive in and over-stress.
Prayers always holding strong for you dear and know that someday all this stress in you life will be a thing of the past.

I hope you feel better soon. I know that nowadays it is hard to find doctors who care more about you rather than care about the money. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Please keep me posted. If you went to the doctor and have a note your boss should be okay with it. I wish you all the best.

We all pray to almighty God to make you 100 % fit as early as possible. You have done the right thing by visiting a doctor but it seems that you were a little bit late visiting the doctor. However, it is no doubt a very good news that you have recovered. As for your lack of your energy, I think your disease as well as administration of such strong antibiotics are responsible. But you need not worry. As you are taking enough rest and must have also taking nutritious diet with additional minerals and vitamins, you will be back to full of energy very soon.

Hi Tina, why it tool so long for you to call a Doctor? You should have gone to clinic or hospital when you suspect that there is something in your right leg, or even just for feeling inactive. There are a lot of laboratories to be done there so that Doctors can diagnose correctly. Anyway, i hope you will follow all the Doctor's orders and complete the medical interventions. We will be praying for you, just think positive.
