Update on Scott!

The Dr's are checking Scott's leg for a blood clot today! The redness seems to be getting better, his white blood cells are normal (the high side of normal), and he isn't running a fever now but his leg is still pretty swollen. An infectious Dr also came in and is concerned about staph(MRSA) and about the swelling. He ordered a soft tissue MRI. Just to make sure the infection isn't deeper in the leg!! He seemed pretty concerned about it!! He is going to be getting some different antibiotics as well to cover staph just as a precaution right now. His sugar has been pretty normal. They did give him a book on diabetes. He is just going to have to exercise and watch his diet or in the years to come he could actually become a diabetic! Keep him in your prayers and anyone who wants can call him, he is pretty bored! (330)-588-5478. I will probably write again when we hear from the testing!
