Thanks to everyone for all the love, prayers, thoughts, meditations, and good wishes. Today I see the infectious disease specialist to assess progress and plans looking ahead. I have been going into the doctor's office every morning for my IV antibiotic and after about five days the progress became quite marked. The swelling, redness, tenderness of my leg all reduced dramatically. When I wake up each morning the right leg (infected) looks as slender and toned as the left leg (healthy). The lower leg muscles do not hurt. Actually, the remaining tenderness is in the lymph system in the upper leg, working hard to process all the nastiness. I believe the fire dragon in my leg is mortally wounded but we plan to beat it down under my feet.
Not sure who the auxiliary saint for legs is but St George is good for dragons, I hear.

I'm pretty sure the Matron Saint of Legs is Saint Betty. When she was among us, her legs were insured for a cool $1M.
Good to hear you and George have this dragon on the run! ;)
You are undoubtedly right, Ralph. lol. Holy Betty, pray for us.
