Severe pain in leg, help?

once they determine the root cause, they'll come up with a treatment plan which will no doubt include physical therapy. Some of your muscles have prob become weak and tight from lack of use during a normal walking stride.
It'll take some time......

Okay, so I went to my PCP, and seen the doctor I intended to... I told him the history, and what I've done so far, and he pulled my boot and sock off and did a capillary fill test(which no other doctor has yet done), to which he said, "not good"... I repeated the test at home, with a stopwatch, and it took about 4 seconds for the capillaries to re-fill, with my bad leg taking slightly longer by about a tenth of a second... Either way, I go out Friday for an ultrasound on my leg to check out the blood flow... A lacking blood flow could explain the pain and limited movement, and the slow onset of it all...
That, and the other night, I accidentally put my bad leg to sleep, and it took every bit of five minutes for it to come back, during which time I had ZERO function... Couldn't stand or walk...

Hope it works out. Stay positive.
Poor circulation can lead to all kinds of issues, so stay all over this.
5min to revive a dead leg? I'd have a panic attack---and I don't get panic attacks

Well, I got my ultrasound done on my leg... No results yet, but I'm sure info will come pouring in later on... Now to follow up with my PCP and see what he thinks...
And yes my leg stayed asleep for quite a while... My wife and I laughed about it because I spilled something on myself, and after failing to get up, I crawled (on hands and knees) to the bathroom to get a towel to clean the mess... During the nice meal she made for our third (wedding)anniversary and everything...

So really you guys were laughing because you pee'd yourself?
lmao, sorry, I had too.
That was nice of her though, cooking a nice dinner. I like hearing that more than the normal "we went out to some fancy restaurant and over payed for everything".
Congrats on 3 years though man!
