memory jolt..I remember having some sciatica problems after surgery too. Staci..it eventually went away. I forgot to ask you..did they take bone from his hip for a fusion? I totally agree with Slick..and luckily ALL my doctors say the exact thing.."There's no reason to be in pain in this day and age". I hope your dad called the doctor earlier than Monday. Prayong he feels betterQuote:

So I called the office which was turned over to his answering service who within 5 minutes got me on the phone with the dr. I told him my dad has a very high pain tolerance (he once ran a chainsaw a couple inches thru his leg and didn't realize it) and he said sure - I explained he was having excrutiating pain and numbness from his hip to his heel and he said he'd probably have to come to have xrays to see if the screw was loose. He would call us back. About a half hour later - he called - talked to my mom and wanted him admitted to the hospital that he was in earlier this week to have his pain managed and to run some tests in the morning. They got bags packed and headed off - I haven't heard from them yet but will let you know when I do.
So Sorry to hear Mr. M has had a setback. http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/frown.gifQuote:

:( Well that stinks Staci. I hope they can find the answer to his pain problem asap.
Lots of good thoughts and prayers on the way.
wowsa! hope he's feeling better sooner rather then later. he, and your mom are in my thoughts
More thoughts and prayers for Mr. M and the family. Hopefully they can fix him up for good!
I talked to Mom after they got him settled and they were putting in an IV for the pain pump. I'll check in the morning before I leave and update.
THANKS!
It was awful to watch him walk like that. I hope he's better now.
Staci, I'm sorry that your dad had to go back into the hospital.:( I sure hope that they can figure out what's causing his pain and I hope he feels better soon. Please take care. (((HUGS)))
:( Your poor dad, I hope they can figure out what the problem is and get his pain levels down. Prayers & good vibes heading your way from all of us-
I'm so sorry to hear this, I hope he'll be feeling better soon!
Staci, I am so sorry that your Dad had to go back to the hospital. But at least he can have a comfortable night before they take x-rays and more tests to find out what is causing his pain.
You have lots of prayers from me for your Dad.
Yes, as Phred said, be very careful driving - you will be distracted thinking of your Dad - and he wants a safe and sound daughter at his side.
xxoo me
Fingers crossed that Mr M's problem is solved easily and quickly and that this is just a small setback. Please update us as soon as you can, Staci..
I'll keep Mr. M in my Prayers ~
Oh, that poor guy :( I am so sorry that he has had this setback.
Please keep us updated when you can.
they called me around 840 am this morning to tell me not to hurry down!
course they woke me up so I'm showered and getting ready.
He seemed a bit better but who knows....
