Here is an image of my left foot this afternoon. I walked for about two hours yesterday in Hanes plain cotton socks and a pair of mock Crocs. The blisters weren't quite as bad as I expected. They are mostly flat and stingy, and under calloused areas - which means they'll probably hurt more tomorrow than they do today. I strongly believe it is too early to credit the Valtrex with the blistering not being as many or as severe as anticipated; it was a cool day yesterday and I wasn't moving around very fast. I have circled the areas where the blisters are the most painful. I shall try to get rid of some calluses for future shots. Discovered the hard way that I need a better camera; closeup shots I tried to take did not resolve well.
Physical things I have noticed today: My mouth is still dry. I woke up with a medium-severity headache that went away with a single dose of ibuprofen. I'm having a mild rashy acne-looking breakout on the right side of my face, but due to the day of the month, that is probably unrelated.
I will probably not be walking any more today, as I have desk work to do for the rest of the afternoon and evening. Onward!
