[QUOTE="Xxlisaxx, post: 818150, member: 172873"] I did the same thing, and I now have a full blown foot ulcer, dressed every week and for over two years it's never changed,,,, became so weak all five metatarsals literally snapped!! Not my foot is deformed,,,, podiatrist kept saying it was swollen cos if the ulcer, but it was killing me,,, walked around for weeks until she FINALLY sent me for an xray to reveal five broken bones, but mended back together completely crossed over. My foot is deformed, I now have "Charcot" syndrome!!! The ulcer has given me 7 hospital stays, seriously ill and with infection, cellulitis etc,,, it's a nightmare!!!! I have the most terrifying photos of my foot! The ulcer AND deformed foot it's just awful and I've always looked after mine, NEVER worn high heels in my life!! Always taken good care of them. One tiny cut on the ball of my foot, and of course u walk on the ball of the foot so obviously it was getting no rest from pressure... Special shoes were arranged from usa,,, 15 months ago?!?! Still not even here yet!! I am the ultimate in "example of a diabetic foot ulcer" :(:(:( [/QUOTE]
