So, this happened yesterday:
I was walking across a parking lot, going to get something for lunch, when I felt a pop in the back of my left knee, and then I hit the ground.
I found myself unable to put any pressure on the left leg, and so I hopped my way back to the car and drove back home. Later that day when my wife got off of work, we took a little trip over to an urgent care facility to have the knee checked out.
An x-ray revealed no broken bones, and the doc said "there wasn't anything crazy in there", so they gave me the brace and told me to rest, elevate, and compress for a week to see what happens.
Normally you'd think that this means more game time, but given that I game from a regular desktop PC, sitting at a desk, I'm not so sure about that. But we'll see how it works out.
So... um... yay?
I didn't do nuthin'! I swear! |

Oh no! Hope it heals OK. Knees are the worst.
ReplyDeleteWell, it's actually healing, because I can hobble along without a crutch now. I can also stand and put the foot fully on the ground, which I certainly could not do on Tuesday. Can't walk yet, as there's still pain when I try to walk like normal. But I have more hope that I'm going to recover without needing surgery.
