Catch Up Post

Since I can only get on at work (for another full week) if there is something you want me to see link me up here.

My special for me only repair person for Frontier gave me a date AFTER the one I already have. That was worth the extra 10 bucks.

Graduation is in a half hour. It's raining. Can't wait to be jammed in the sweltering gym.

So the biggest news from me is I got back my MRI results on my knee. They're bad. I knew to expect this but I was hoping to get more years. I know I'll need a total knee arthrosis and its nearly time.

The good news was ALL the ligament repairs are fine.

The bad news is the medial mensicus is burst in two places and exiting the knee in two different directions. I've already had 3 mensical repairs already so there isn't much they can do. I'm not in terrible pain and none of this explains the numbness (that comes monday) and none of this explains the bulge at the front of the knee (which I suspect is a synovial cyst) I see the doc next friday after the pressure test. I won't go for a total knee this year though. Let's see what stop gaps we can do (I mean I don't want my whole sabbatical being wasted on this)

I'm sorry about your knee. Hopefully now that you know you and your doctors can work on a plan on what should happen next.

thanks. I have more testing today and friday I talk to the doc. Hoping to put off the replacement for now. I have too much to do this year.
