    Default Yay...it's not a tear!

    So I'd been having knee pain, and when I trained MMA last week it buckled and gave out about 8 times. I've had chronic knee issues and so I went in. He was concerned I had a partial tear (knew right away it wasn't complete...I'd probably not be able to walk) of the ACL so I was supposed to break from activity (umm...I forgot that part ) and he didn't want me dancing (I Do Not actually remember him saying this, but makes sense. I only worked one night anyways..no harm done).
    MRI is done, and just saw him and it's NOT a tear. I have a mild ACL sprain, and degenerative menisci. I've known the second part for awhile. He also said it was quite interesting that I had a bone spur (seen on xray) on the top of my kneecap. So a few more days off of work...I'll continue to work out, but stay away from the knee. I see him in a month, if NO improvement we'll start thinking ultrasound and massage therapy. Sounds rough doesn't it On the flip side, if it gets worse we may need to think injections....ewwwww

    Sweetie, take VERY good care of yourself! My husband has had 2 surgeries and 3 permanent screws put in his knee due to a torn MCL and a fully rupture ACL. DO NOT mess around with those!

    The surgeries are extremely expensive and the rehab intense and long-term!

    *hugs*

    Just take it easy....taking a couple of weeks off work and from working out is far far better than not being able to work or work out again!
