Holy crap its been 11 days since last update...due to moving and no internet...shitty...
Anyway i guess this update is rather a downer and of bad news....
My knees have been bothering me for over a year and in the past couple months my left one has been killing me to the point where i stoped tying to run for the past month or two, its done no good. So i finally went to the doctors because i want to run good at oakland and i want to be injure free and pain free, some how i konw that will never happen. I went to the doctors yesterday and the doc said 3 differnt things....patella condromalasia, tendonitis, and possible torn cartalage under my knee..wonderful huh? The doc is not sure what it is so a nurse scheduled an appt for me to get an MRI done....i hope im not caustrophobic....but as the nurse was scheduling it she mentioned the words "MEDIL MENISCUS TEAR" which means.............SURGERY, my friend had it done. So of the 4 things mentioned to me, i don't know what the hell is wrong with my knee. I do know that my coach now wants to red shirt me for running next year, well this yr, which means i can not run as an oakland univerisity runner, which sucks, but it also means i can run as a OU runner my 5th yr of college. So i duno, all i know is im scared of the results, i don't want surgery and i dno't want to have to miss school and i don't want to learn how to use crutches...good thing my apt is on the 1st floor...haha...
But yea bad news but i will get the MRI done on aug 4th, check back in with the other doc on the 11th when he gets the resuts of the MRI, and then if surgery or therapy or whatever is needed, i wil know then....
IM SCARED........i don't want to go under anesthesia again, the preping they did on me for my tonsils freaked me right out, i don't want to go under again.....
