Members MsGuy Posted January 17, 2013 Members Share Posted January 17, 2013 Good luck, Josephga. Forty years ago rehab from that was a total painful bitch but no doubt they have better methods now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BigK Posted January 18, 2013 Members Share Posted January 18, 2013 Hope all goes well and hope you have someone to help during your recovery. I guess you won't be giving massages for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hitoallusa Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 I hope it goes well and you recover soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest josephga Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 I have to go in again monday to have it looked at again. I'm hoping the injury is small enough that it can heal on its own or through rehab. Last 2 days it hasn't bothered me as much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EXPAT Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 I truly do hope it goes well, but I have to ask the $64,000 question. . . .does this mean you've been on your knees too much? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamSmith Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 If this helps any, several relatives report that new knees are well worth the trouble & short-term pain. (Providing enough opioids in the recovery phase!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest josephga Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 LOL actually I was in the gym working out on the elliptical rider. Like I have done 100s of times, during the final 2 minutes I felt a pop in the knee. I've been working since then but wearing knee brace on that knee...
