I would guess all here have been tested for diabetes. If you have it take your meds and don't cheat. My foot infection could not be resolved and am having my big and index toe amputated today. Back on the forum in a few days.

You're right - 8 out of 10 ain't bad. Best wishes for a strong recovery, Ash.

Wow... good luck! I hope all goes well. I'm curious... are you going to need special inserts in your shoes to help with balance? I've heard that the big toe plays a large part in helping with balance, but I'm not sure how true that is.

I want to post the toes on facebook.

Hope your procedure went well, you had/have minimal pain, and your adjustment and rehab period goes as easy as possible.

Thanks all. Successful. A few days on meds and then re-learn how to walk.
