A week ago I knelt to plant some bulbs in the front garden and heard and felt my knee.. spludge .. not a good feeling but finished the plantings and get up to get dinner ready. Walking accross the kitchen my knee shot backwards and hyperextnded. Seriously not good feeling followed by shooting pain!!.. I deployed my "labor natually through pain" techniques..which worked until I could get to the docotor. Now motrin and tylenol 3 are my new best friends.

I think I have torn up my miniscus again. I have had two surgeries on this knee already. An MRI planned the week before Christmas will give us a better idea of what is going on. Meanwhile it HURTS to sit, bend, do anything on uneven ground or up and down hills/steps. I'm getting a LOT of knitting done!

I'll not be on the computer much because just sitting for this short periood of time is like having knieves pushed through my knee cap.. andI can't think a straight thought on the tylenol! whicih is why I only take it when Steve is home.
