[QUOTE="martinbuchan, post: 2314, member: 718"] All going well. Have my bespoke surgical shoes (lovely). Intravenous antibiotics finished after 6 weeks. Repeat MRI scan shows great improvement. Middle toe went funny before Xmas and dislocated probably due to infection in the joint. Seems to be settling. Still on oral antibiotics for a while. About to start hyperbaric oxygen therapy in the next few days. 30 treatment 'dives' over 6 weeks (£6000 per week!). Great for neuropathy. Might turn my painless numb feet into painful but sensate appendages. If any of you have osteomyelitis, or poorly healing wounds, or severe autonomic neuropathy , it might be worth prodding your diabetic team into referral for HBOT . They will want you to have good pulses in your legs and have decent diabetic control. In Scotland, the HBOT is accessed via the Diving Medicine physicians in Aberdeen. see [url=http://www.hyperbaric.org.uk]http://www.hyperbaric.org.uk[/url] for more details. Supposed to be great for hangovers...... Marty B [/QUOTE]
