Marblez Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 I am always worried bout my knees these days. They have been feeling weird every onece in a while, it appears to be related to wearing my heels. Grr, I like my heels! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marblez Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 A better one would be: Ben Wallace - Probable (pulled hamstring), Darko Milicic - Out (torn ACL), Lindsey Hunter - Doubtful (high heel shoe injury). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Dark Posted January 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 See, I have severe problems with the ACL and cartlidge in my right leg... I have even had surgery on it and have been told I will need a knee replacement eventually. When you have a servere problem with one knee... your body adjusts and shifts weight to the other leg... If you jump.. you absorb most of the shock with that other leg.. all this over works it and eventually.. something "breaks". My MCL just could not handle the added stress anymore and gave out. Standing up was the candle that broke The Dark's leg. You should have seen the look on the nurse's face when I told her how this happened.. "I stood up" deer in head lights look "No, really... how did this happen?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sunday Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 Well good luck rehabing your leg, my brother tore his ACL and the road to getting it back to 100%....well it's been 7 years and it's still not 100%. Hopefully you're not an athelete and need to run around alot. I have no idea about knee replacements but hopefully you have good insurance. good luck.

Lilith Posted January 14, 2005 Report Share Posted January 14, 2005 Brians dad has had his knee replaced and still has trouble with it but he is like 70 yrs old now so i think he just like to complain alot. I will say even thogh he does complain about it he is getting around alot better then if he had not had it done. All i know is ( i have had some odd experiances to back my thought on this) the younger you are when things happen the better chance you ahve of recovering 100% or close to that any how. So if the option comes arond to have the surgery get is done as soon as the doc recomends it. I as well will put a good word in for ya. Huggs to u for pain huggs to wifey for puttin up with your pain. ;O)) harm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Dark Posted January 14, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2005 Well, the Docs say I dont need surgery.. I need to wear this brace and stay off it as much as possible for the next month or so. Still hurts like hell though. gah.. I hate my knees.
