MrHixxx 0 #1 February 13, 2003 Stepped off a ladder a little weird last week, thought nothing of it. Five days after the swelling goes down and my leg feels like it is falling off below the knee, not good. The MD suspects a torn MCL (skydiving translation: You will not jump for many months) and sends me off to an orthopedic doc. He looked at my failing joint this afternoon to discover a torn medial meniscus rather than MCL. I can have it scoped on Monday and have it healthy in 3 to 4 days after. I don't have insurance and I don't know my status on workman's comp, but I am relieved to have a lesser injury at this point. -Hixxxdeath,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

slim 0 #3 February 13, 2003 glad to hear your not getting amputated (anything that takes more than a month might as well be)!! that tends to slow up your jumping <<<>>> A good friend will bail you outta jail...

AggieDave 6 #4 February 13, 2003 Good luck with your knee, it sucks (trust me I know, I tore my MCL and did ACL damage this summer), but it'll get better!--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
