It is official, it has attacked my feet and ankles now. The wife went to Walgreens and rented a wheel chair. My feet are swollen almost 3 times the size as well as my calves and ankles. The bottoms of my feet are bad! I can stand on them but just for a few seconds as it is a horrible pain while standing.

I am hoping that the company president will allow me a job attached lay off tomorrow. This will at least allow me to collect unemployment for the time needed to recover. From what the doctor stated, it will usually go into remission within 4 to 6 months taking the synthetic vitamin A and steroids. So I should be able to go back to work within 6 months. I just hope they do not completely replace me within that time frame.
I'm not exactly prone to emotions, but reading this just brought tears to my eyes
I'm terribly sorry to hear about the update. It sounds like basically the worst scenario possible
