Infections are no small thing, they go from bad to worse in a hurry. Glad you caught it before it really spiralled out of control. Rest up, hope you're feeling better soon!

Good gracious! Get on them drugs and get well soon. That sucks donkey nads for sure, but you can pull through this.

I can empathize! I've had a minor case of avascular necrosis of the knee for no apparent reason about 4 years ago (part of the femur bone dies at the knee end and start crumbling) which can lead to eventual knee replacement. You don't think much about how important your knees are until you can't use them. I suffered for months because an X-ray wouldn't see it but finally an MRI got it nailed down. Luckily I got some cement pushed in from the back of the injury to fill the potholes in the knee joint, and I'm doing way better now. Still twinges a bit sometimes and not too bad, but it's my "clutch leg" so that might suck going forward.

Also... did you do the two tone paint on Old School to match the silver upper and dark lower of your body hair? Where is the transition line and is it pinstriped, Chewbacca?

I'm all seriousness I hope you feel better soon - but, take this opportunity to rest and reflect.

Thanks guys.
That post wasn’t for attention or sympathy, just a “state of current affairs” type update. I’m a tough old b@st@rd, much tougher than I look, and I got this covered. It’ll be an annoyance for a couple of days, but once I can get off the IV I know I’ll be a lot happier.

I’m just a lil pissy because sitting around on my a$$ is the one thing I don’t do well. I’m always on the go, people to do, things to see and all that. Ain’t got time to sit around binge watching tv. So that’s honestly going to be the worst part of this whole thing. On the positive side, it appears that the antibiotics are already working well. The area doesn’t look as angry, the pain has lessened, and I think some of the swelling has come down too.

So as much as a PITA carrying this man-purse around is going to be, it was definitely what was needed to get the situation under control.

motorheadmike - I guessing I’ve got around 10 years or so on you? First of all, respect your elders young padawan! 😅 Second, just you wait and see what the next decade of your life has in store for ya, you’ll be two-toned and pinstriped yourself before you know it, and that’s if you’re lucky! Mr. Clean bald if you’re not.

Probably. My high testosterone levels started taking my hairline years ago. Fortunately I've been shaving my head since highschool... and met Natasha while bald.

Rest up. I am here I'd you need anything... except bodywork. ;)

I think it depends on the required bodywork
