Well had another foot dr visit today....it has been 3 months since I had the toes done and they still haven't healed all the way. They took x-rays and decided the toes are trying to fuse but for some reason the one toes next to the big toe isn't healing completely and is very sore. They took the cartilage out and so it is bone fusing to bone......this toe was very crooked and the hammer toe of it was bad.
The doc wants to give it another 2 months and then if things aren't better he will shoot it with cortisone!! Grrrrrr.....we talked about the fact that my body keeps being so low of Vitamin D, which I take Vit D pills as well as the D that is in with my Calcium and still it is low. Of course it has to do with healing ......Grrrrr!! Suppose to watch the long walks and not take as many and keep trying to put my foot up while sitting . He also put a metal plate in the bottom of my shoe to keep me from bending my toes so much.
Don't need any more stress!!

So true! Ya don't need any more stress, there's enough for several people as it is.
Isn't D the sunshine vitamin? Maybe you need to sit in the sun??? lol No kidding, there has to be a reason. Did you have this D problem before you had gastric bypass? Cory has always been low on iron, but it is worse the past few months. She saw a hematologist in Columbia last week. She had an iron infusion, and will have one every week for 4 weeks then they will test to see how she has improved. They think the cause is from several different things, but that the surgery is ONE of the things!
