Staples Out: Video

Facebook post from yesterday:

I created and uploaded a video onto my YouTube channel, explaining my two recent surgeries and my appointment at my vascular surgeon's office this morning to have the 96 staples removed from my legs: right leg: 70; left thigh: 16; left calf: 10. (length: 11'51")

On November 4, 2025, I had a six-hour-long surgery to remove a long vein within my right leg (about 3 feet long) to bypass an occluded (blocked) artery within my left leg. The blockage is/was three feet long. Basically, my right vein was reversed and put within my left leg to restore circulation.

On November 8, 2025, I had two of my toes amputated on my left foot (the third and fourth) due to the artery blockage.

My daily, six-week-long intravenous antibiotics regimen is finished on December 12: bone infection in the big toe of my left foot. I have done this regimen many times for bone infections and skin infections in both of my feet and legs.
