Thank you, levels are all good, always have been so the diagnosis came as a surprise. Mostly interested in wound care. If anyone has had any positive outcomes in getting them to heal and what methods they used.

My husband has a wound on his foot and he goes to a wound clinic. They tell him what to do and give him instructions for me to follow. I bandage his foot and bathe it all in trying to keep infection from sinking in to it. It’s a daily task and I stay on top of it. Watching the wound and changing the bandage regularly is key to helping it grow to better health. Keeping it clean also helps it. But it’s a slow process! Just keep it clean and keep clean bandages on it is all I can tell you.
