Tony's Knee

If you'll notice in the last post, Tony had a bandage on his knee. Well, this is a drama that has been dragging on for about 2 weeks. The short version of the story is...He has some kind of inflammatory problem. We went to an orthopedic surgeon Thursday morning. The doctor drained his knee and said there were two options. It's an inflammation and can be treated with medicine. The other option is an infection and if that is the case we'll do surgery Friday to clean it out. WHAT? surgery! Good news is the labs came back and it's not an infection. Bad news is that it's probably gout and this problem can occur again.
