On crutches... - MarkTD - 16-12-2012
Again!!!
Everything was going fine yesterday I was servicing the pug and having a fit with a sump plug lol
Went to get up off the floor and felt something go in my knee. (I have a dodgy knee to begin with) as I got up I shouted 'oh dear that hurt lol' carried on as normal and my knee started getting worse.
So I decided to call it a day and rest it, went to friends house just up the road and was walking ok with abit of pain. Got home had my tea went to get out of the car and 'snap' something had gone in my knee and can't walk or put much weight on it as I'll fall over.
I believe I f*cked a tendon up or summat lol so I'm not a happy chappy. I shall be at doctors or a&e If it doesnt Get better soon . Although it does save me fuel money being driven around lol

Ooooooooo!! I have to say the noise when a tendon goes is effing horrific. I myself have a dodgey knee due to splitting it in half when I was 9. It doesn't help when its cold. Seeing as you was underneath your car then I imagine it wasn't the warmest of places. If you know something isn't right in your knee, its best to go straight to A+E as, as it happens, knees are very important.

They did bugger all last time I went A&E about it. Gave me crutches and told to rest it.
I'll go at some point, need someone to drive me lol. I tried driving today and its f*cking agony lol

Dude that's bad luck, on the plus side you don't have to worry about not being able to drink cos you've got to drive this xmas

So got my knee checked out today and it seems I have damaged my MCL / Patella tendon (For those that don't know it kinda works like an anti - roll bar lol)
So I'm walking better now without crutches and got my knee support back on to help but if it doesn't get better. I've got to go and have an MRI etc but at least I'm more mobile now!
Means I can wash the pug lol and do some other jobs on her.

Well things were going good as my knee was healing, but now Things have gone to shit again! Looks as though I've damaged my MCL, ACL & LCL.
I can't even put any weight at all on it, the pain is fecking awful! So far I've been told, rest, elevation, pain killers etc. and if it still bad later to o into hospital with it.
