I can relate-- I popped my knee a number of times in judo.. and have had knee surgery three times.
So yesterday morning I popped it again going down some stairs... So after sitting in the dr.s office for about an hour in pain today they took x-rays again. At least this time I saw my actual doctor, last time I went to urgent care. So yeah, they're trying to get me in today for an MRI. The doctor thinks it's the ACL. No judo or jiu jitsu for a LONG time it looks like.

The same thing as every day - knee pain, lower back pain, and neck pain. The pain might be associated with my CFS... but then again I don't have much if any cartilage left in my knees, and I "frayed" (less than a tear, more than a strain) my ACL & PCL on my right knee 6 years ago (ironically on Halloween) - and I put my back and neck out when I went sailing of the turret of a tank when it fired without warning 13 years ago... so really I'd pretty much be in pain anyways ~ it's just now I can't take any pain-killers 'cause they'd react with the medication I'm currently on

At least they can get you in for the MRI really quickly. If it makes you feel better, I have no idea if I'll ever get back to taekwondo. Okay, that probably won't make you feel better, but just know that I know what it feels like. Welcome to the gimp squad!

I have had the flu TWICE this month. I have had it for 5 days now, and the fevers will not go away. The first time, it eventually ended- but I did have to miss a day of work. This time, it started on Friday in the middle of a class tour I was doing. And the fevers keep ebbing and flowing. I know both hits have been the flu because usually colds have a certain progression that these do not match.

I'm having an ungodly amount of stomach pain from my celiac's lately. I've been really careful about what I eat but it seems even the smallest amount of cross-contimation is killing me. Ugh!

Posting this one on behalf of my boyfriend

He was flipping a recorder around (the flute type, not a tape recorder) in that way that fidgety people do and somehow managed to ball himself. Even if you don't use the word "ball" as a verb you can probably guess what that means.

I was on the phone with him when it happened and God help me but I could not stop laughing. Not because he was in pain, but because he did it to himself. In front of his family no less. Poor boy.

I had mine out 2 at a time, so it was a little better. For the 2nd one they gave me gas.....I swear, I came out of the surgery wondering if I could buy that stuff on the street.....

Well, my left butt really hurts because I've been sitting in the same spot since 8:20am. I have 2.5 hours to go.

My legs are wicked sore after riding a horse for the first time in three years yesterday. Good kind of soreness though.

My sinuses on the right side of my head are painfully congested to the point where it hurts to touch my face....ONLY on the right side. Plus, I've been feverish and dizzy off and on for about a week. I graduate in 2 months, I cannot get sick IN ANY WAY.
