CBG: How are you doing? Is the infection better?
CDC: Ok, but I’m in a bit of a funk about it. There’s still some pain, swelling, inflammation around my ankle and it’s been over a month. I see a doc at the Infectious Disease Clinic at the VA next Friday. This isn’t my first bout with cellulitis, I’m taking an immunosuppressant med for my PMR and I’m a bit paranoid about reinfection, between a rock and a hard place and all that. Thanks for asking.❤️
CBG: This has been a long haul. I hope the infectious disease doc can get it cleared up.CDC: Thanks. I hope you’re well.CBG: I’m fine. We’re heading to Florida for a wedding on Friday and I just hope our flights are safe.🙏CDC: 🙏
