My Dad has issues like that so hopefully they figure something out!! Good luck Cleo!

It's from being shot back in 1998 so it isn't due to disease but is due to trauma.

I'm a bit annoyed at my doctor for not listening to me when I said I thought it was due to not getting good circulation in my leg and him insisting it was a sciatica nerve issue.

After almost two months of waiting for my sciatica nerve to heal I finally had him take some x-rays at which time he decided to have me have an ultrasound.

I think I may be his only gunshot patient though so I guess I can't be too hard on him.

I watched this video of what was done to my leg this morning. It really made me chase.

Good morning everyone!

I think our new house is finally starting to come together now, still more unpacking, and arranging of things, but it's starting to look like a home and feel comfortable again.

I'm hoping to make it for OTB today, but I have to take the kids clothes shopping since school starts Monday.

Cleo, I will be thinking good thoughts for you.

Have a good one!
