Knee news

For those of you who know that I have somehow injured my knee and want an update, I don't know too much yet. First of all, I don't know how I injured it except that it has been clicking and catching off and on for a few weeks (well, maybe months) but never had pain associated with it until last Friday where out of the blue I got up from my desk at work and it felt like it caught, or locked and then it hurt. The pain progressed until that night I could not stand on it or bend it.

The injury clinic Doctor referred me to orthopedics and that appointment is scheduled on 2/23. My primary care doctor requested an MRI today but I have not heard when that appointment will be yet.

The brace that they gave me has helped immobilize the knee and it feels much better now. It might even feel normal except I am afraid to test it out. I have been a total bum since Thursday, not working out at all so I am anxious to figure this little glitch out and move on. I'll keep the blog posted on the progress.
