Hey guys,

I spent all day Sunday in the emergency room with pain in my leg. It was really bad at times. I was just really starting to feel normal and had thoughts of even working out on Sunday after church but when I left church I got the same intense pain in my leg that I hadn't felt in 2 weeks. I called my doc and he said to go to the Emergency room as a precaution. 4 hours in the waiting room before I got to go back to the doctors. They took a new ultrasound and it appears one of the 4 veins that were blocked in my leg is now open so the meds are working slowly but surely. I have to stay off of my feet for a while and can't go back in the office quite yet. Thank God I have a job that allows me to work from home. After 7.5 hours in the emergency room I finally got some Morphine for the pain. I spent 8 total hours in the emergency room! WOW what a day. But I feel fine now thanks to the meds. I just have to medicate to manage the pain for a while. At least I am making progress. Thanks for the prayers and concern guys. Again it means a lot to me.

WHOO - MS.

good stuff. Glad your feeling better bro. I've heard from other people that when vascular flow is restored it can sometimes hurt like a ....

In my family member's case- it started to itch like crazy. Who knows.

I was thinking of packing an overnite bag to come down there and begin treatment myself. Lucky for you that you're better .

Thanks for the update, Scar. We'll continue praying for your leg.

On a side note, seeing you type "took a new ultrasound" brought a grin to my face.

There's always room in the smoothy suite. We have a drawer you could sleep in buddy :D. Sense of humor still in tact.

Good to see things are going well. Any chance I could get a night in the Smoothie suite at some point this season?

I went back to the office on Tues and today and worked half days. I am going to try to work a full day at the office tomorrow or Friday and see how it goes. My blood levels are where they need to be and I don't have to take the needles in the stomach since last Wed. I still have pain meds but I haven't taken them in a few days. I am not quite ready to get back in the gym but I am ready for some light exercise I think. Thanks for asking Roger.

That's a steal, SCAR, if it includes Mrs. SCAR's cookies and looping video of your ETSU dunk!

Seriously, glad to hear that you are feeling better, SCAR.

Jim the cookies are extra :wink: I hope to see you at the game on Sept 12th. I am sure our seats are near each other if you are in the red seats again.

I am taking my 1st trip since the episode. I wasn't quite up to traveling to Lynchburg last Saturday for the game but I am looking forward to the stadium upgrades and atmosphere... We are flying to Michigan tomorrow night for MRS SCAR's Grandma's 90th. I hope G Ma doesn't read flamefans cause it will ruin the surprise. Thanks for checking on ya boy.
