Happy Monday: Broken nose and knee injury

[Aromig]

I saw a knee guy in Indy named Klootwyk that often worked with the professional football players. If it's him -- I agree -- outstanding!

It IS him, they are trying to fit me in on Monday.

Awesome! You're in good hands. My repair was a simple meniscus tear, but they had to scrape some things out too. I had the best of luck with no complications, and had a much better time than friends who had similar surgeries. Maybe that was luck -- but he always made me feel comfortable, and he took the time to explain things to me (some doctors aren't so friendly or patient).

Good luck, Catrin! My knees have been exceedingly cranky lately (moving pissed them off) - so you have my sympathies.

I just wanted to add that I had had knee things resolve, but take much longer than anyone suggested. I too had a fall at work and dealt with Workers' Comp. They wanted to do exploratory surgery, and I declined. Took about 9 more months for the swelling to go down and the pain to go away, but it did (at least until the recent patellar-femoral issues and other stuff on the other knee).
