Time to call my doctor's office again (not Dr. Ciccinelli directly, unfortunately; he's out of town in Arizona).  I've been noticing oddities about my toe last night and this morning, and developed some concern that I have an abscess in my toe.  I just confirmed this supposition by lancing the suspect spot with a needle and getting about half a teaspoon of dark, bloody pus out of it.


UPDATE:

I just got off the phone with Anne, the nurse at at East Carolina Foot & Ankle.  I now have an appointment at 0930 tomorrow (with Dr. Roman, as Dr. Ciccinelli is -- as noted above -- out of town).  I've done what I can for now, basically consisting of topical antibiotic and a gauze dressing.  The implication, of course, is that whatever's in my toe is resistant to the azithromycin they already gave me.
