Hobbling Like a Granny ! !
Well what a day. Sat in the hospital for two and a half hours before the specialist finally saw me.
The MRI results are inconclusive. What he was looking for was lacerations in the tendon. My knee cap apparently has been pushed into my muscle and is now on a slant, this has put pressure on the tendon causing it to sever. What they don't know is how bad the damage is.
For now I have to undergo 4 weeks of intensive physiotherapy to see how strong my leg gets. So I now have exercises to do everyday and I have to try and walk and put weight on it whenever I can.
Walking hurts like hell, but if it means a little pain to regain the strength and not have an operation, then I can cope.
With 1 crutch and a dodgy knee thought I look like a right little old granny. At least it makes me more mobile than before and 1 crutch does not hurt like putting all my weight onto 2.
Tomorrow
I am going to see Ian tomorrow, YAY. Can't wait to see him again, then spending the evening with him and his lovely lady Toyah. Can't wait hehe

More confused than ever, kinda need some space on my own. Would seem my head is really confuddled, one minute I want to be left alone, the next I am lonely. Cannot seem to make my mind up.
Weight
The consultant pointed out that I have lost a lot of weight, in his opinion, so I checked this out on the scales when I got home, and I have. WooooooHooooo. No one around me notices because they see me everyday. I have also been really worried that the lack of exercise would have a bad impact on my weight. One good thing from all this, is that I now want to go back to the gym and start swimming again once my leg can take the strain. I want to get down a clothing size or 2.
Well tired and achy so heading off to bed.
Night
