The real reason some with LP end up pulling the leg up in pain is due to CCL tears which often happen with an unstable knee.

I guess I am not much help. I will keep you and her in my prayers...I am sure you will make the right decision.
Ah yes, he did mention tearing a ligament which could cause the problem, however I don't think that is the case with Lay.

Thanks for your prayers. This is weighing SO heavily on my heart. I never did think about making another appointment. He said to give it until around Mid June- if nothing has made itself clear by then, I think I will make another appointment to talk to him. Great idea- thanks
