Title: OUCH!!! Update-7/16....
Post by: GrayBeard on July 16, 2013, 06:13:02 pm
Went to orthopedic Dr. this afternoon...either torn cartilage or torn ligament...have to wear brace and only place minimal weight on left leg and see how it reacts...go back next Wed. (24th) for further evaluation...not being able to have MRI due to cochlear implant makes diagnosis a bit more difficult....going to be a long week!
Darn brace goes from my crotch to my ankle so have to sit crossways in backseat to go anywhere in a car...doing all the lifting and walking, etc. with my right leg only is resulting in a real PITA!!!

Know exactly how you feel G B. had a broken leg and had to lie sideways on the back seat. Not the most comfortable of positions I may say. Anyway you do as you're told and get back to your usual chirpy self SOON.
