Scott's leg

Please keep Scott in your thoughts and prayers. Since before Christmas Scott has been having some pain in his lower back and leg. It started off just a teeny twinge in his lower back when we would do our walks but over the course of the past few weeks has turned into more. Last week he was complaining of pain in his right shin. It seemed to come and go and most of the time he was okay. Then Sunday night he got up to get Arianna in the middle of the night and it was too much for him to stand. He felt better when he woke up but after a long day of being on his feet, the pain was back again. Since this was the first week of classes he was too busy at the beginning of the week to get in to see the doctor. Finally he got an appointment for yesterday morning. He was at the hospital most of yesterday talking to the doctor, getting x-rays and a CT scan done, and talking with the physical therapist.

He had a physical therapy appointment this morning. I know he was hopeful that it was going to be like the last time and the physical therapist would take one look at him, pop something back into place, and he would feel good as new. Unfortunately that isn't what happened this time. The physical therapist isn't sure and doesn't want to do anything intensive without knowing the results from the x-ray and CT scan. Scott has another appointment with the doctor tomorrow morning and then will see the physical therapist Monday morning.

He is just in a lot of pain right now so please keep in your thoughts and prayers.
