Knee issues
Hi guys.
Well, the knee saga continues. I had an MRI yesterday (that was about as fun as I don't know what) and was planning on a follow up with my hunky sports doc Weds.
I even looked for my report today...nothing. Which was weird because it's all digital in the system fairly quickly.
Well, I get a phone call today from the radiology department. I guess the Radiologist saw something he really didn't like on my the front of my knee, he isn't really sure exactly what it is, so he wants a contrast study done. UGH!
So, tonight I went over and had another MRI this time with contrast. I hope they can figure out what it is. I know the Sports med doc said he thought there was a bone fragment or something in the front there. I think the contrast was to illuminate blood flow and soft tissue. ??? I am no radiology expert at all.
So, I guess I will find out more tomorrow. In the meantime, I didn't get my workout in tonight because they scheduled my MRI for 7pm. Didn't get home from wor****il 5:30, had to change and drop my daughter off at her "sweetie's" baseball game, the back to OSU. Plus I didn't get one in last night because I literally didn't get home until 9:00pm. I left at 8 that morning.
Today I have been up since 5:45...I am whooped...BUT.....
I did get in the pool for the first time this summer!!
aaaaaahhhh a warm 88 degrees. almost like a No kids...put Seals and Croft in the cd player, did some laps, got my heart rate up, did some resistance training for legs and arms, and then just chilled. It was the most relaxing hour I have had all week.
I even beat Earl in the pool. It's been in the 90's here for the past few days...I am LOVIN' IT!!!
See ya!

PS thanks for listening to me whine...
Val, sorry to hear about your knee. Hopefully the contrast will let you know something! My mom is having lap surgery on her knee on the 15th. The doc is fixing what(I believe) the other doc screwed up. But he won't say that.....of course not! Anyhow, I hope you will be up and running soon!

PS.....can I come and play in your pool??????
Hey Val:
Sorry to hear about your knee issues. I hope they can figure out what's going on and take care of it quick so you can be out of pain and back doing what you want to do.
As for the pool.....wow...sounds great!!!! It was 32 degree's at work yesterday and 34 degree's the day before. It snowed, rained, hailed and the wind blew like there was no tomorrow. So, enjoy that pool and don't you worry one bit about those of us still living with arctic weather.
