You probably wont be seeing much of me...

For the last week I have been flat on my back with a nasty infection in my ankle and foot. The doctor says it is some micoscopic bacterial infection that invaded my foot somehow.

I spent last friday night in the emergency room hooked up to an IV with pain killers and antibiotics and have been on the couch with my foot elevated ever since.

You dont want to ever go through this.. It is by far the worst pain I have ever had to go through..

Sorry to hear you're laid up and in such great pain Mike, get well soon!

We should all remember that a little time with neosporin and peroxide can be a good idea.

Re: You probably wont be seeing much of me...

Regrets Mike ... Seems this sort of crap is becoming more prevalent. Any idea how it was able to attack ... scratch, bite, cut?

Get well ... best fishing is just coming up.
