40/56 and sunny today. Waiting on the next front come through Wed night.
I got to checkout our new free standing ER yesterday afternoon. The inside of my right foot and ankle began swelling on Fri morning. I didn’t think much of it and my movement was not impeded. By Sat afternoon I could not put any weight on the foot or walk. The swelling had increased and was centralized on the inside of the foot and ankle only. To the best of my knowledge, I had not injured my foot in any manner. My wife was out of town, and I decided if it persisted that I would go to the ER on Sun after she returned.
On Sun morning I still can’t put any weight on the foot and the swelling had increased. The wife arrives around noon and shortly there after I head to the ER. Total time spend on the ER experience including travel time was two hours (shocker). It turns out it was a flare up of arthritis and bone spurs which I have never had a problem with, in my feet until now. I was told to ice and stay off my feet for a couple of days and to use crutches if I had to move around. THe PA advised that this will probably return in the future (great, something to look forward to).
I guess this is another certification of being a full-blown FOG (and it could always be worse).
