Unplanned day off. One thing after another after work...

Met with the doctor today to discuss my most recent MRI on my left knee. Basically, I have the same meniscus tear in my left knee that I had repaired in my right back in May. However, since it's not causing me much pain, he reccomended no surgery. But the pain in the knee could return at any time depending on how the flap of torn meniscus "flips". Great to have that in the back of my mind forever.

Sorry for the work stresses and uncertainty with your knee. Praying for peace of mind.

I am sorry that you have to deal with that, Rob, but I am glad you are able to run. I hope that if something does happen you are able to get the same surgery.

Start a blog GoFundMe. People will chip in when their daily dose of witty commentary hangs in the balance!

Minimal pain is better than pain, at least, right? And if you do need surgery someday, you already know what recovery entails.
