I'm home

This past weekend found me very sick with the flu... Sparing you the details - it was the worst flu I have ever had - more pains than aches it seems.  But was better within about 36 hours. Just to wake up to something I've never experienced before...

I woke at midnight on Sunday - I noticed my leg was red - just thought it was how I'd slept so went back to sleep - Woke up Monday morning with a much redder, hotter, more swollen leg (mid-shin down).  Not being a doctor type person - I decided to let it go to see what happened.  Ended up in the ER on Tuesday - - diagnosis (after testing for blood clot) - cellulitis - needing intravenous antibiotics.  Two days in the hospital put a big bite into the infection and now I'm home.  Oral antibiotics for 10 days and a trip to the doctor in a week... hopefully a complete recovery will be achieved soon!!
