Thank you all so much for replying to my post! I forgot to mention that my Dad is in Canada and I'm in Scotland so it makes everything a little bit harder. He was diagnosed quite late (apparently) at 65. He has an appointment to see his doctor tomorrow, but he was speaking to someone today and they figure it is just a flare up and he will probably get some steriods to get him over the hump. Thanks again for taking the time to share! I wish you all the best!
