I slipped and whacked my shin really hard...

Sort of? I'm not sure that's what they call them since they are fairly big (and pretty long.. it's a bummer they didn't get the lateral view, they look scary from that side)...but that's what held the lower part of my ACL graft in place. There's a screw my my femur too for the other end.

The radiologist report simply stated "within normal limits"

I wish I could say it feels better today than it did a couple of days ago.. now I actually have more pain standing on it than I did, so I'm taking a break from the bike until at least next week and I'm hoping it won't be bothering me as much.. it's not super painful, but more than enough to notice, even with motrin, which is super annoying.. and probably a good sign to take it easy for a while Easy of course, being relative.. my 3 kids sure don't seem to notice that I don't feel like running around after them all

Stupid leg It's cursed, I swear...

Did they not take a lateral view, or do you not have it to post?

Sometimes things show up from another angle that can't be seen from the first one.

I spend 8 months in pain from wracking my shin on the pedal while trying to clip in on my then-new bike. Never went to the doctor. My bad.
