Well things couldn't get better [/sarcasm]
I went to the dermitologist today to get some discoloring on my foot examined. It started out as a small brown spot on my sole Saturday then Monday was a big huge blotch speading over a decent portion of my sole....I was telling Tangie about it Mon. nite. My regular dr. said to go this dermitologist...so he looks at it today and finds a small cut between my toes. Turns out I have a bacterial infection that attacks the layer of skin respnsible for pigmentation...hence the discoloring. So now I have to take medication and get prescription cream for it. He wants to see me in 3 weeks....if no improvement then he wants to do a biopsy. :(

Thanks, girls! :) On the bright side, since I am on antibiotics now maybe this will keep me from getting my annual bout of the flu that I always get during the holidays.
Hope those who are having Thanksgiving today are having a good one :)

Hey Shell, what's up? If they have to do a biopsy, it means they will have to probably take a piece from the infected area of my foot and test it to see if there is something worse than just an infection. It's looking better already so hopefully that won't happen.
As for Thanksgiving, it is a big occasion like Christmas, plus the day after is the biggest (or busiest) shopping day of the year cuz all the stores open earlier and have their big Christmas sales. From now til Christmas traffic here in Phoenix is gonna stink and going to malls will stink too. Also Phoenix gets a large number of winter visitors from all over the place, so that adds to it all the more :eek:
