hopefully, now that they know what's wrong a treatment plan can be developed, frannie! i assume it's lumbar spinal stenosis since your hubby's pain is in the lower back and legs :( unfortunately, it's a by-product of aging and common in the over-60 crowd ;)
so sorry your hubs does not belong to the lucky ones who hardly have any symptoms. hang in there! (((hugs))) :wub:

    Good morning Kat, Dale & CES

    @FranC hoping all goes well for dh

    @daleron I get the feeling you are tired. Looking forward to seeing your perky self again.

    @CES, Took a long time to get started, but progress now is looking good!

    @Katmar hoping each day brings you closer to complete healing
    Just a little bit Gracie ;)
    Being so sick and having to work through it pretty much wiped out my reserves, just now starting to sleep again... that will make a world of difference :)

    Guess bad news travels fast....Spinal Stenosis
    I'm so sorry Fran ((((hugs)))) for you both. Hopefully they'll find what works for him quickly and get him some relief.

    This has been a long running pain issue in which time hubs has had multiple blood tests. He has an appointment to see his primary next Tuesday. The appointment was made quite awhile back but I guess it's perfect timing.

    This is another ailment I am very familiar with, Frannie. Have had it for many years. Pain comes and goes. Surgery can help, but only for the leg pain. It usually doesn't help the back pain. There are some good pain clinics out there that do NOT utilize opioid drugs. Wishing Hubs lots of luck. PT CAN help, also.

    Good evening and goodnight Snails. Sleep well, pleasant dreams and a better tomorrow for all :). Slept a little less today. That's something!:)
