Will all the recent postings about medical problems and associated
crashes I decided to post my own. Lat couple of weeks My foot began to
hurt as though I had kicked something real hard and sprained
something. I figured it would just get better slowly like usual but
only felt worse. I was checking things over after a shower and felt
some skin gone just behing my middle toe so I stuck my hand inside my
boot and felt around. I couldn't feel anything until I pressed down a
bit harder and felt a sharp point. I flipped the boot over an saw the
head of a tack in my boot. I pulled it out with some pliers and
discovered that it was just long enough to be causing my problem. My
foot now feels much better but I sure feel like an idiot for not
finding it sooner. Really Old Fart.

You have all my sympathy for your pain and I share in the joy of your
recovery.
It's amazing how long we'll tolerate low-grade pain before we try to
figure out just WTF is causing it.
