I do check my feet daily, was trying to be attentive, but this one fooled me.
My foot DID hurt. I knew that it was hurt, but thought it was just the aggravated sprain. It never occurred to me (although it will now) that it could actually be broken. Or that I was making it worse by the activity (until the last 2 days, when the swelling didn't go down). (It was the middle three long metatarsals, where the bone widens to form the joint with the toes.) Of course, in hind site, I can see why my blood sugar levels started going screwy at about the same time. On 2/27/06, Larry C. Lyons <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > dude! Diabetic Neuropathy!
