UPDATE

Ok I think I got this figured out. Mom got out of the hospital Monday, Dad was admitted Tuesday and got out Thursday. Friday morning he was back at the ER and they sent him home after a morphine shot and a prescription for percocet. (spl)
He is in so much pain and it would not go away. Saturday morning Mom had him back at the ER and they admitted him again. They are talking about connective tissue disorder and have mentioned lupus.He is on a pain pump again and hopefully they WON'T send him home again til they find out what the problem is. Please keep my dad and mom in your prayers.

.....again

Dad was admitted in the hospital today. Apparently it's not gout but something else. He has PAD and at the moment they are thinking it has spread...last I heard.
Mama said he was in a lot of pain and they gave him a pain shot...didn't touch it. So they gave him some demerol...didn't touch it. He ended up with morphine, he said it worked right away. Please keep them in your prayers.
