The sepsis? That is often fatal. Or at least requires amputation.

The sepsis had nothing to do with my diabetes. I also do not have advanced
neuropathy, whatever that is. I have moderate neuropathy.

You have severe neuropathy as you did not know a 3/4 inch tack was embedded
in your foot and had been there so long it created a deep tissue infection
which you barely recovered from. That means even your pain receptors have
died. The neuropathy was caused by your diabetes.

That is not what happened at all. You left out glaring portions of the
story. The sepsis came about from a bad Dr. I did not have a deep tissue
infection. I had a slight infection. The hospital told me that I did not
need the operation. I should have gone to another Dr. But what I should
have done and could have done were two different things. I do not wish to
go back and relive that nightmare.

The neuropathy was caused by my diabetes, yes. It is what eventually led to
my diagnosis. I kept going into the Dr. complaining of symptoms only to be
told that there was nothing wrong with me. I even had a Dr. tell my husband
that I did not have diabetes and then later he told me that he never said
that I had diabetes.

I wound up in the ER on the way back home from here to CA where I was
finally told that I did have diabetes. I don't want to relive that either.
And no, I do not have severe neuropathy. It is moderate.

You posted here you had a 3.4 inch carpet tack imbedded in your foot and the
infection was so deep you had to keep your foot elevated for 6 weeks.

That is severe neuropathy. Gangrene is the next level.

Okay. I will recap againm for ya then ever again. Yes, it was a carpet
tack. No it wasn't 3.4 inch and I don't even think it was 3/4 inch but I no
longer have the little devil so I can't measure.

We had a storm coming. I had on some winter boots. No, it wasn't exactly
winter. It was right after Valentine's day but I loved the boots. Up until
then. They were lightweight and comfortable but apparently had crappy soles
on them. I was hurrying the get the trash out. As I walked by the
workbench, I felt a severe pain in my foot. I immediately took off my boot
and ran my hand inside of it. I had just put the boot on and my cats
sometimes like to put things in my boots and shoes. I figured that was the
case there but I found nothing. I did also check a second time in the same
fashion. By running my hand into my boot. Found nothing.

Kept on going. Kept feeling pain. It is not unusual at all for me to have
foot pain. That's what neuropathy does. Causes pain. And yes, it is
moderate. I was tested for it and that is what I was told. I also have
many other problems that can cause me foot pain. I was very busy. I can't
remember the details now but I pushed on. Told myself that the pain was the
phantom pain of neuropathy.

Some hours went by. Can't remember how many now. Got ready for bed and saw
the blood on my foot. Only then did I go back and look at the boot sole.
The sole was very thick. Thicker than the tack by quite a bit. But
apparently it was squishy enough that it compressed down some, allowing the
tack to enter my foot. It did not enter far but that's beside the point.
Because I kept walking around on it, it pierced into my foot many times,
covering an area the size of a dime.

I cleaned the would and went to bed. But by morning, there was redness and
my foot felt hot. I then contacted my daughter and told her not to be
alarmed but that I would likely not be home when she got here as I was going
to the Dr. I think I had shown her my foot that morning when she got up but
I had to wait for the walk in clinic to open.

Dr. told me that the infection came not because I was a diabetic but because
it was a tack the tack entered the flesh. It wasn't *my* tack and I suspect
that it came from next door. The same house where I suspect they were
putting their trash out with mine so I had to pay for it! I did mention it
to him and two other neighbors and that immediately stopped and his trash
trailer came back. Hmmm... Anyway... Dr. said when the wound is a
puncture one, then whatever was on the item that punctured gets pushed up
into your body.

Dr. told me to wait a certain length of time and come back. I was on
antibiotics and doing wound cleaning at home. Also ice and elevation.
Infection got better but didn't totally go away. She tried to send me to
their Podiatrist but they were in another city and it would be difficult for
me to get to. It was my right foot so that made it all the more difficult
to drive. And I didn't want Angela to have to drive there since she didn't
have her license yet. And I really had no one else who could drive for me
due to various circumstances.

I wound up hook up with a couple of bad Drs. and no, I didn't sue. I will
spare you the grisly details of that but what they did to my foot is what
caused sepsis. First off they insisted on operating. To this day I do not
know why. They sent me to the hospital where I was discharged after being
given I.V. antibiotics. They said the wound was healing just fine and I
needed no operation.

At my followup visit, the Drs. went ballistic because I hadn't had the
operation. They sent me back to the hospital. Once in there I had many
medical people look at my foot and tell me that I did not need the
operation. Even their wound care specialist. But the head podiatrist said
they were wrong and he'd rather operate than amputate. I think he said this
to scare me. He seems to like to do that to people and so does his cohort.
That and torture. Everyone else who saw the wound, including the visiting
nurse said they had no clue why he would say this because it was all healing
just fine.

The sepsis came with followup care. Visiting nurse kept telling me if I
continued to see this Dr., my wound would never heal. They both kept
reopening the wound and the one broke a wooden stick off into it. Then
acted surprised when I said that it hurt! They also kept the wound bound
very tightly and would put my foot in an uncomfortable position, I suppose
so I couldn't step down onto it. And because of this, a fungal infection
set in. I wasn't allowed to look at my foot but Angela took pics of it when
she could so I could see how it was progressing, or not. As was the case.
Those Drs. were keeping it from healing. And yes, I have proof of this. My
SIL insisted on going into the room with me and she was horrified of what
they did to me. Begged me to see a different Dr. but those boobs told me
that I had only one more visit with them and it would be healed. If only I
had listened. That last visit caused the sepsis.

The Drs. at the other hospital believe that when they ripped the wound open
again and shoved the stick in, they pushed the fungus deep inside me. By
the time I got to the ER, I was told that I might have have died had my SIL
brought me in 5 minutes later. I did not want to bother her with all of
this because at the time she was taking care of both of her parents. Her
dad has since died. I knew that she had her hands full but she was the only
person who could have driven me there. My mom is blind and everyone else I
know was either working at the time or does not have a vehicle.

I don't know where you got this gangrene nonsense from. There was never any
threat of that. I did wind up having two allergic reactions to the
antibiotics I was on. Both happened in the hospital. And I wound up with a
severe fungal infection pretty much all over that required additional
treatments. What those bad Drs. did to my foot didn't help that but neither
did all of the courses of antibiotics I was on.

So... You can quit with your lies now. What happened to me could have
happened to anyone. The fact that I stepped on the tack more than one,
probably wouldn't have mattered either. Just the fact that I did step on it,
pushed whatever bad things were on it up into my body. The same would havve
happened to anyone that had stepped on it. Now perhaps if someone had
stepped on it and immediately went to the ER for proper wound cleansing,
infection might not have set it. But the first Dr. I saw said it still
likely would have gotten infected because it would have taken me at least a
half an hour to drive to the ER.

Obviously there was, that's why the podiatrist referred (above) to the
risk of amputation.

http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Peripheral-
neuropathy/Pages/Complications.aspx

quote
"Gangrene

If you do develop a wound infection in one of your feet as a result of
peripheral neuropathy, there is a risk this could lead to gangrene
(death of part of the skin or underlying tissues).

If gangrene does develop, you may need surgery to remove the damaged
tissue (known as debridement) and antibiotics to treat any underlying
infection, and in severe cases your toe or foot may need to be
amputated."

Gangrene would be the next logical step. He never said you actually
developed gangrene.
