I've injured my knee and had to go to the emergency room today. :(  It started last Friday when I started to slip and fall and while I was able to catch myself, I tweaked something in my right knee.  I limped around a bit at my brother's house, but it was mostly sore.  Then on Tuesday I was helping a student get a book and another boy came up and I ( Read more... )

Thank you. One of the hardest parts is not being able to spend too much time online... the angle is just bad for my knee. :( I really need my laptop! I'm going in to work in the morning and I'll try it until noon at least and see how that goes. I tweaked it a little bit this afternoon just getting up from the chair and I've been trying to be so careful. sigh. I'm anxious to see what they tell me on Tuesday.

Thanks for keeping me in your prayers!

Thank you, I hope they do too! I'm going stir crazy here. I really need a laptop as I really can't spend much time on my main computer as the angle is just bad for my leg. Writing long hand is so hard for me anymore, but I'm doing it a little bit and a friend brought over a little gameboy thing. :)

Ouch! I'm sorry, those knee things are painful and a pain to cope with, too. I hope it is able to fully heal without intervention.

Thanks! I'm hoping they won't have to do anything invasive either, but right now I'd just like things to be back to normal! I'll bet you'd like that too, huh? :) The pain isn't nearly as bad as it was on Thursday, but then I tweaked it again today when I got out of a chair (!) so that's not good. :(

Oi! I hope rest and the brace will help you heal what the MRI scan reveals, soon. *hug*

Thanks, Rhapsody! I hope that rest will be enough, too! I'm anxious to find out what exactly needs to be done and Tuesday seems a long ways away right now. The brace is sort of helpful, though it slips down from where it is supposed to be and so I'm constantly yanking it up! :)

I'm so sorry this happened to you. I'll keep all my fingers crossed you don't have to wear the brace for long.

Thank you. I hope the brace is all I have to wear and that they don't have to do any sort of surgery... I don't think so, but that's my fear.

I'm keeping all my fingers crossed there is no need of surgery.
