Hi all,

Well I went to the Dr today re the xray on the foot sinus and he confirmed I have Osteomyelitis!! It's only taken 2 years!!
Anyway another two weeks of antibiotics and he is going to write to the orthopods so hopefully they will de-bride it surgically and I can be free of it at long last.
Mind you I expect it will be another 3 months before I even see the surgeon let alone get it sorted but at least we are on the right track at long last.
