Yep. He is very good and I like him a lot. He's very sympathetic and efficient and always with a smile and tender words for you. Not like some mean ones you get to meet once in a while. He's a keeper for sure. He did not want to remove the fluids (not enough to limit my movements because removing it means a surgery. And surgery is always a risk (even if it is only sucking liquid out) of bacterias going in. So the less tempering the better.
It's better for the front knee fluid. Almost gone. I can pratically bend my knee normally. The back of knee (going down the upper leg is much better but at the end of the day, it gets "tired". But I can't complaint. There are so many more people much worst then me on this planet.
But true, any body part...you take for granted until it starts acting out. But I find knees/feet are worst as they limit you much more than an arm.
Oh well.... It's ok. I have a super long weekend coming up next week and I sure hope I'll be able to cycle some. Mostly on flats not to overdo anything.
My taping is holding on very well so I may push my PT of tomorrow night to change the tape to Wed night. I should be able to keep the new one for longer that way.
But lesson learned. If one of my knee freaks out...never bear too much weight on the other one to compensate. Use cane or crutches. Because of my worn out cartilage in both knees, the extra weight on the "better" one during an episode will affect later on the other one.
