[QUOTE="Grant1969, post: 1998784, member: 473881"] Yeah the nurse took another couple of swabs and the previous swabs have shown the infection to be "what was expected" and didn't worry the Drs too much but the several courses of antibiotics didn't shift it so I suppose, logically, removal of the source of infection makes perfect sense, it's just that with diabetes and me being underweight and weak I'm trying to be realistic and get on terms with the possibility of losing my leg. All the usual worries are there about clots and other infections and difficulties faced during surgery along with the trying it to see type approach and it's leaving me, well, err, concerned .
