Off to surgery
Damn!
Right now... we know:
Torn ligament in left knee
Other damage under left knee cap
Can't do an MRI because I already have 2 pins in there.
Date: Next Friday.
I WILL be at A.S.S. but... on crutches, leg brace, ***** load of pain killers, etc.
I've had previously:
ortho on both knees
Left knee cap relocated and 2 pins
Countless knee braces, casts etc.
He wanted to do surgery this Friday.....I asked if it could wait.... he said yes... and let me give you ALOT more pain killers
Ugh, I hate this crap!
We won't know the extent of the damage until he is in there.
Well..... at least I can hope for cute nurses at the hospital right?
Guess I'll be online a HELL of a lot more than I am now
Race season..... postponed

Good luck with the surgery. Bring a magazine or two to keep your mind off of it.

And you're HOW old? Damn that sucks. I hope my knee doesn't give me **** until I'm long done and retired.
Good luck and ask for titanium bolts!

man, that's just so wrong... (one day you will be old and gray and some snot-nose is gonna be making fun of you - wait, why should they wait 'til you're gray?)
28 is young (16 for the first operation?!?) but some people just have a predisposition for faulty joints. shave the bone... lol

I have noticed an increased ammount of online time....but you never answer which means either
1) You are dopped out on meds (BTW what did they perscribe you?)
or
2) You're a jew bastard.
Good luck and feel better.

Kasey, the added weight of the phone books for you to sit on would offset any weight loss.

I say you just have them replace both knees with titanium, bust your ass with rehab and get back to the track a few pounds lighter.
Good Luck man!
