Hit my first bucket of balls since the left knee replacement.   No issues.  That was nice.  

The results……. Well,   I have some work to do.

Just got back from the ortho doc.  Been in pain all week on my knee, said it was likely a meniscus tear and it was probably already healing.  Got to go back in a week for a check-up but for now taking anti-inflammatory and watching.  He did say that most of my joints were in good shape (on the knee he xrayed) and I was a long way from needing knee replacement.

Can a meniscus tear heal?  I was told they can't.

Well, I got a ambiguous answer.  Apparently some can heal, but only if it's on the outer edge or in a certain place.  And it also depends on how badly it's torn.  You need an MRI to determine that and we only did x-rays.  Since it was much better today versus last week he told me to come back in a week and we'll see how it's doing.

My daughter had a torn meniscus in one knee, had surgery, the doc told me she'd have problems later in life.  The next year she tore her ACL and damaged the meniscus in the other knee (soccer both times).  I was told the surgery would be about an hour.  After two hours, I was getting pretty frantic.  He finally came out and told me she was doing fine, at that point I didn't much case about the knee.  This all was 20 years ago and she's OK so far.

She boxes to stay in shape, of all things.  Not competitively.  She's my ten thousand dollar baby.

I got up at 5:14 to pee, and went back to bed and slept until after the sun came up.

I'm not usually grumpy, but can be at times.  I feel OK today, have eye doc appt up shortly, I expect nothing to change.

I'm expecting a GREAT day, just wish I'd slept better.  It's gonna be a long day, but good.  Headed to Lincoln tonight to have dinner with my daughter.
