Exclamation I have a meniscus tear..-UPDATE!

Just got a call from my Orthopedic surgeon's office. My MRI says I have a meniscus tear in my knee. Ugh. Will have to discuss my options next Monday. I may have to have surgery. Lovely.

Keep ya all posted on that.

UPDATE:
Well, guys, back to the operating room I go. I have to have a partial meniscectomy on Friday. I will only be laid up for a couple days, then I will get back to normal pretty quickly. I have family coming on Thursday so they can help with the kids.

BTW, the pool will be ready to go by the end of the week! Nothing like swimming and water aerobics for the injured legged ones!

Default Re: I have a meniscus tear...pooey

Thanks guys! Well, how it happened...here's the deal: Last year I had problems with it, but it wasn't bad enough to check out. Then I broke my leg and I think I excerbated the problem then. I know it sounds crazy, but I broke my left fibula and badly sprained my right ankle when I took one step down on one of the flight of stairs in my house. The bad knee is the right one, so I probably hurt it more then.

The symptoms I have are pain, especially when trying to bend it, some instability and swelling.

Will be praying for you and your surgeon. Glad you got some help for all thoise little ones.

since you got time how about socking away some Atkins friendly for your phase foods to induct on while you recover and your helpers can serve you healthy for your Atkins foods? nothing like not being able to run to the frig to raid it to help get through the first few days of induction flu?
