"OUCH"!!!!!!!!
« on: July 14, 2013, 10:54:01 pm »
Moving some plants on a brick patio today and went to turn to my right.
Body turned but shoe caught in edge of a brick. POP! went the left knee.....
After trip to ER I have ace bandage and 'imobilizer' unit on left leg and instructions to see orthopedic Dr. tomorrow. Most likely no ligament damage but cartilige (sp) is very likely badly torn. Sure hope he can do outpatient arthroscopically! Will keep you all posted.
Makes it damn difficult to get around!!!

I never really wanted to grow up....All I wanted was to be able to reach the cookie jar...and play with my DW 788

GB, With my knee hutring for the last 13 years, I know exactly what you are going through, hope they sort it out for you quickly. Take care my friend, and no running after bargains till the knee gets better.

Hate to hear that GB!  My last motorcycle wreck shattered my right kneecap so I feel for you.
