We went to the ballgame on Saturday and on Sunday, noticed that the front of my surgically repaired leg was red. It looked like sunburn and sunburn was certainly a plausible thought, so we slathered it with aloe vera gel and kept an eye on it. This morning, I noticed a lump on the leg that was unfamiliar near one of the scars. Hmm.

I packed up [livejournal.com profile] daisy_knotwise and Katie and we headed off to Gretchen's doctor's appointment. As I was sitting in the waiting room, I noticed that the lump was leaking. One of the nurses looked over and said, "You have cellulitis. You should see your primary-care physician."

So after Gretchen's appointment, we hied off to LaGrange to Dr. Bob's office, where he prescribed antibiotics and told me to keep a good eye on it.

Sigh. At least we caught it pretty quickly.
