notes and pics from 11-4-06

I haven't been on in a while mostly due to lack of changes. For a while my pain level was low and there were no changes to my condition.

That changed roughly 3-4 weeks ago. My pain level increased to a 4, I had a feeling like I had been kicked in the right shin. No visible marks, just the pain. I shaved that area to look for changes in the coming days or weeks. I didn't notice anything. after a week or so that pain disappeared.

About 1-2 weeks ago my ulcers reappeared. As you can see from these pictures I took on 10/30, I have numerous smaller ulcers on the interior of my left ankle and another slightly larger (.7 cm diameter) on the interior of my right ankle. My pain level currently is a 5 and has recently been as high as 6. Continuing to stay on my meds has been problematic but with the renewed pain level increase, I will have a constant reminder.

I will try and update this blog more often now to note any physical changes.
