In the meantime, soak your feet in hot very salty water at least once a day. I see a podiatrist every 6 months and that is what she suggested. It works until I can be seen again. Chiropodist and Podiatrist are basically the same. Those who graduate now are called podiatrists.

Mbaker, those meals look delicious. And not those silly little side plate sizes either.

My medichecks was back in April and it was fasting. It’s been a while since a 24 fast so I’m not sure but I will give it a go. Thanks for your advice

I have done precisely that DCUKMod. It still took me 3 or 4 times before I was allowed in. I’m glad I am not the only one and it has been reported. Thank you

Yes Pinkorchid. Sometimes it lets me log in, but more often than not, it will not let me submit my login details but will just keep loading the login page over and over again. even though I have deleted cookies. Most annoying. I hope it can be fixed.
