So how it goes
After paining me most of the night, woke up at 6:30 in the morning and the knee was going on fine.
Me = WTF?
Knee = IDK?
Get to the orthopedist through the rain and cold and good news. They can't find anything wrong. There might be a tear but if so it's so minor it'd clear up with PT anyway. And I have a reccomendation for PT 3 times a week for the next 6-8 weeks.
Me = O Joy
Knee = ....
Then as I walked away from the office where a PA and an Orthopedist had rocked and poked and prodded and bent my knee all around?
Knee = OMGWTF DID YOU DO TO ME! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Me = Oh. Now you say something!
Bad news? Having a high pain tolerance is likely messing up how doctors interpret things for me. Because I'm seeing a pattern even if they aren't. And so far the pattern is: Willow's body is allergic to Willow and her joints burst into inflammation every so often as a reminder.
Anyway, inflammation, I need to take more naproxen and do PT.
Had a random moment of thinking of
viridian5 because after her doctor's appts, no doubt instead of 'Ow ow ow' it's all "Dizzy, woozy nauseated" and the check out receptionist being annoyingly chirpy.
Spent money on microwaveable food and fried chicken. I don't care how healthy it's -not-. Needed something easy. So tired, achy and exhausted now.
