My knee troubles...

Nov 02, 2005 14:58

Here is an magnetic resolution image of a human knee, as seen from the front, most likely. On the right side of the image, where the joint is will be the portion I will talk about.



I went to a specialist yesterday. He is a surgeon. He did the ACL reconstruction for a friend of mine, of whom was going to pay for the appointment yesterday. He asked some questions and examined my knee. He determined that either the cartilage (called the meniscus) or the tendon on the inside is torn. I've got to get an MRI, like the one shown above, and chances are I'll require knee surgery. If I don't get it now, it will only get worse.

I'm not telling my family.
