Nothing Definite on the Osteo

I called over to the wound clinic today to find out if the radiologist had read Skip's x-rays from Friday. Apparently, they were read yesterday. Based on what the radiologist reported, there were no fractures or dislocations. Okay, but what about evidence of osteo? No word on that.

Fortunately, tomorrow we have an appointment at the wound clinic with Skip's plastic surgeon so I expect we'll get more information. With luck, the infectious disease doc will have reviewed the x-rays by then and passed on info to either the clinic staff or Skip's surgeon.

Bottom line ... we still don't have a definitive answer. But, we don't have bad news, either.

The waiting is so difficult. Glad they are being responsive to your requests for updates.

Always amazing how you can hear of so many medical improvements/advances/etc., yet some things still seem to drag on...

Diane - yeah, especially when it's a human who just seems to ignore the request and report out on irrelevancies.
