Tonight's roller rookie pro-tip: Do not try to follow the guy on the Sufferfest video around the corners.

I kept asking my wound treatment guy about this but never could get a straight answer. Hell, I couldn't even get answer. Maybe because if you then asked him how to treat this condition, the medical community's response would be a doink doink look of WTF puzzlement. So why tell the patient anything? I found this in 10 minutes of digging on the web by the way.

I'll be battling with this on a chronic basis I'm afraid, but the circulation in that leg continues to improve, and at least I know how to treat it if it worsens into an actual open sore.

I'm thinking, when have you given me information that answers a question I have posed, was there such a moment.......let me see.....maybe when you...nope, or.....nope. Just can't think of a bloddy effin thing.

Well you are doing all the right things, exercise, loss of weight but remember, this all stems from an inability of blood returning from the leg to the heart. This build up of pressure leads to the changes noted. Only application of counteracting pressure truly helps in solving the problem, or at least in relieving the symptoms. Jobst or sig varis stockings are what I order-40 mmhg pressure at least knee high. Although proper wound dressing choice is important, the most important treatment remains pressure application.

it should have been we're not were. one is a contraction of two words meaning we are; the other is a past tense verb.

No crash this evening, I was saved by some little wheels at the edge of the front roller. They are like rumble strips. Last night while thinking I was good enough to ride no-handed and reach over for the remote to turn down the music during cool down... not so lucky. I landed on the stair climber.

They do add a new dimension to riding indoors.

I know, I know, I already edited my original post!

Billy isn't too far off though, I did go to school here in Fl.

Emoticons are essential if you want to convey sarcasm!

Wrong. Correctly chosen words will convey sarcasm just fine.

In fact, emoticons should be banished as the choice of the verbally uninspired.

I wear the compression sock on that leg. I wear the 20's (knee high). I have the 40's but they're really hard to take. But the circulation does look better in that leg. After today's 45 mile ride (I did have the compression stocking as usual for the ride) my right (the effected leg) and the left side were identical in size (previously it was often the case the right leg looked larger). I do think it's slowly coming around.

And yes, that's what the medical websites essentially said, that it's compression stockings and treating an ulcerations properly should they recur. At least I know what I'm dealing with. What's amazing to me is I could have been told all of this in ten minutes by my specialist. I got most of what I know about this from him, but then had to figure out the rest on my own. I shouldn't have to figure out any of it on my own, that's what he's supposed to do.

I really don't understand some of these doctors. When I see that wound treatment guy again I'll ask him why he didn't answer my question when Google did relatively easily.
