After my trip to Melbourne feeling on top of the world .
I came home from work and my ankles on one side of each foot are red and covered in a rash . Put a pic up on FB And Jem helped me as did an old school friend .
What the hell do I do supposed to work a 12 or longer day !!
While it wasn't itchy it hurt like hell if touched . I will compare it to feeling like a burn , after burning myself with hot water from a kettle that's it!!
Got to work grabbed a first aidier who was stunned I did lie and say it happened from this morning .She grabbed the boss another first aider another boss had a look . That looks like Kia's rash she has just finished and moved and is type 1 while im type 2 .
So boss number 1 gave me permission to go to the doctor who opens at 7 !!
Was better than calling in saying im sick they saw the problem and could argue with it .
Doctor not my normal GP had very little idea thought its dermatitis maybe . Gave me antibiotics as he was worried about infection two days off stay off your feet !!
Seeing the cardiologist tomorrow night this is the worse ive had it .First time my BP was 180/110 me thinks its more that than anything else !!

And what did the tarot reader say your health you must watch and you are watching the diabetes BP and Heart !!

"More Serious Rash on Ankles

Diabetics also commonly experience rashes around the ankles. This is considered a more serious condition as leaving the rash untreated can reduce the blood flow around the areas of the ankles and feet. Some of the most severe cases can result in the loss of a foot or amputation of the affected area. Diabetics may wear a special type of sock to encourage blood flow to the areas around the ankles and feet."


Methinks get some expert advice??

After some advice and thinking by myself . I just popped around the corner to SA Diabetes I haven't been a paid up member seeing I'm cheap . Bite the bullet paid for two years and bought a new pair of diabetic socks to try .she looked at my all day socks said they are good but its the top bit that causes issues .
And she looked at my leg that's your diabetes and she showed me hers could just make it out !!

So thanks to everyone tonight I see the heart doc
