Fuck.

Well I was put out of my misery today RE my injury. And it's fuckin bad news mang.

Took the MRI to the ortho today and he took a look over it... He asked me if I had an Xray and I'm like "yeah but I didnt see it and they didnt give it to me".

So he says I should have one, like now. Hmm. So I asked what the MRI showed and he's like "nothing. And thats why you need an xray immediately" so I says "well what's up with the knee?" and he says "something bad I suspect" oh joy

So I dig a bit more and he says my kneecap wont sit properly. Every time he moves it he says "hurts?" and Im like "yeah lol" and he says "yeah your cap sounds really mushy"

So I get like 8 xrays and as soon as I get back he says "yeah I thought so" and i ask what the deal is.

I need a new kneecap. LMAO.

Either that or he's going to use filler. Basically when that piece of metal hit the cap it broke it, and its nowhere near where it should be.

Physio 3 days a week and a operation to look forward to. LMAO.

I gotta laugh, because otherwise I would cry, this sucks hairy balls.

I don't personally know but I've heard kneecap replacement sucks a fat nut.

But the good new is, you can recover. It's not impossible.

[ydnap]

Yeah Im hearing the same tbh. But honestly? Anything that might one day stop this fucking pain is fine with me.

I have to go to physio therapy in two weeks. He was worried because my muscles have all gone to shit. So I am gonna be doing the water therapy in a pool to avoid impact..

What sucks is he doesnt want me driving AT ALL. Today he showed me how easy it is to make my tendons spasm because theyre trying to put the kneecap where it should be and my knee locked completely. Then he asked me to picture a scenario where I was acceling and having that happen and I had to conceed, it would probably cost me my life.

So, with all this spare time I am going to redo my trunk install and get my paint buffed. I also have a project for something completely balls out unique and other small bits to do, so it's all good at least I will come out of it with a much nicer trunk install

If it makes you feel any better, I f*cked up my knee in my indoor soccer game on Saturday night. I've never had knee problems, only ankle injuries. I can't hardly bend my knee right now and it sucks ass, especially last night when my ex called me up. This f*cker hurts worse than any other injury I've had to date, and trust me I've had more than my fair share.

I'm so scared to go to the doctor in fear that he's going to want to cut into me, but if the swelling doesn't go down I'll probably have to do the inevitable.

I feel your pain!

You know what's odd dude? I said the same thing about my knee. I have fractured my skull, cracked my chestplate, compression fracture in spine, snapped my right leg and left themur and broken both wrists and ankles but this knee fucking SUCKS. I dont know why it hurts so bad but yeah, it's actually worse than the grapefruit sized hernia I had coming down under my nutsack.

When the doctor was examining me yesterday he said "gee you're beaten up, you got some lovely war wounds.." and I was laughing.. he said "man you brits are tough SOB's, I bet you'll live to about 90.."

Don't sweat it bro, it's a dude thang. I am terrified of doctors, hospitals ane needles too... I don't know why, I mean when I was 7 I spent a whole year in a hospital bed in traction for my shattered themur and fractured skull (was ran over completely by a Fiat 127) and should be used to it.. I think it's the fuckin smell of the places tbh. that horrible surgically clean odor..

I had to have blood tests every single morning for three months to make sure I wasnt getting infection or bleeding internally, yet I cant even think of getting a tattoo done because of my fear of needles Usually when I need a shot I get the doc to jab me in the asscheek so I dont have to see it going in..

I have fractured my skull,

that explins so much

[ydnap]

Oh haha.

Well, I've never sucked a hairy ball, but I suggest it would be unpleasant. So, is your Ex's health plan footing the fee?

[ydnap]

Nah workmans comp have kicked in fully (thanks to Jennier Klasen my attorney) and they have sent me a gratis medical card that covers everything from doctor visits to pills and everything, there arent even any copays

Theyre also paying me 75% of my wages aswell, so I have enough to live on. Pretty nice really because I would be screwed otherwise.

I do have benefits 'cos it's NJ state law that if you get them for yourself you have to provide them for your spouse. Main reason I havent filed for divorce tbh..
