Yes all ok. I posted yesterday about a what I thought was a bunion injury (lot of swelling) and found out it was an infection. Doctor gave me antibiotics but it got a bit worse and I am just erroring to the side of caution. All podiatrists are closed totand my doctor doesn't take calls, I don't want to risk coming here simchas Torah so I came here today. I do have a lot pain when walking though.

Did you bring along a phone charger ? Spending so many hours on your home may cause the battery to go to sleep. It’s even more important than food.😉

Yes. At one point I knew I might have to go the ER urgently. My emergency bag consisted of my insurance card, ID, and a phone charger with an extra long cord Smile
