Psoriasis is the diagnosis.
Improvements continue every day, but I still have some sore areas.
The swelling has gone down greatly, especially since I finished the antibiotics.
Dr Pratt was a very unpleasant person, but she knows skin, and her prescriptions have been effective.
I also saw Dr. Dossetor, who is a much nicer person, and who agreed with Dr Pratt's plan, except maybe the Soriatane... which she thinks mught be too much.
I also saw Dr Rose of Infectious Diseases (Civic) and a nurse who usually works in the psoriasis clinic, and they felt I was on the right track. He (Rose) said the swelling was due to the infection.
Last week was a busy one for doctoring.
Yesterday I had my colonoscopy (irrelevant to feet, but more doctors). Today I was discharged by the CareFor nurses re infection/wound care, but I will be going back for foot care for the remaining calluses.
Tomorrow, Dr. Chestnut, for a checkup, pap test, and obviously a follow-up on all this.
