knee is fucked - Page 2

Exis · 06-23-2018, 11:37 PM

Apparently you can get some blood spun (from you) & injected in2 the joint to relieve pain, I think it allows the platelets & plasma to isolate from other blood components...could be wrong though.

uh-oh · 06-24-2018, 05:11 PM

sunday evening update.

woke up, it felt alot better. i'm thinking yeaaaa another day of hot and cold treatment being next to comatose relaxing and i should be good to go for the week ahead

the coffee kicked in. i gotta shit. i head to my bathroom and remember i forgot my phone on my desk. so i turn to pivot and ODSAFIHSFOHBAS painnnnnnnnnnn, wiggly sensations AGHHHH. its been worse than ever since then. i didn't like PLANT and cut like im running and shit, i just went to turn around, but that slight twisting in me forgetting it was hurt, because it genuinely felt at least 50 percent better just caught it.

i still think its the meniscus because of when in the bend, and where it hurts. i just think its legit tore now.

i most likely will go to the hospital from work tomorrow to get it looked at. my only problem is i have health insurance, like i pay for it from work, but i never received a card and i've been putting off calling them and shit. so i dont know how any of that works.

but word. the update is all bad. its just strange because 1 out of every 5 steps feels normal, but 4 out of every 5 is WTF don't WALK ON THIS

Ghost1 · 06-24-2018, 05:28 PM

Just get the carrier name from ur work and the hospital can call them to verify it's active and what type of coverage u have

uh-oh · 06-25-2018, 10:12 AM

the xrays show fluid in the joint, they gave me a knee immobilizer and took me off work a couple days and i'm supposed to go back with restrictions like that is possible lol.

im supposed to follow up with an orthopedic doctor, it said to schedule and appointment between 2-4 days, but the soonest they can see me is july 18th

so i gotta figure out something i dunno i hate this fucking shit. but word its probably the meniscus since that doesn't show up in xrays and the paperwork they gave me said its usually injured from crouching/twisting which is what it is. but i think i need an mri to see that

i also gotta get the x-rays before going to the orthopedic doc, why wouldn't they just give me that there tho wtf now i gotta go back and get those

ITS A RACKET I SAY

Ghost1 · 06-25-2018, 10:30 AM

word I skipped all that bullshit an just got an mri for my shoulder cuz I know people here at the hospital. its definitely a racket...........yanow we could always start trying to work towards universal health care :)

uh-oh · 06-25-2018, 11:55 AM

free market would be cheaper and more simple. the problem is the over regulation, more regulation wouldn't help matters. YA FUCK. i'd rather just go to freddie g's mri shop inbetween the deli and check cashing spot. then run over to an orthopedic surgeon who can hook me up and has to have competitive rates to be profitable in the marketplace

but yea 36 phone calls later, i got an email copy of my id card for my insurance, and my follow up appointment thursday.

i had my vacation scheduled two weeks from now but i might see if i can't just burn it this week and just get this all figured out now.

Amen · 06-25-2018, 01:06 PM

U know as well as I do there will never be a free market healthcare system lol

uh-oh · 06-25-2018, 01:23 PM

i can only hope there will never be universal healthcare as well.

Cut the leg off. You can't have a sore knee if you don't have a leg.

uh-oh · 06-25-2018, 02:59 PM

maybe if our government had a track record of being able to manage money it would begin to make sense. but even if somehow the government wasn't completely inept in that regard, it would be a god damn nightmare to see a doctor.

so while the sentiment of free health care for everyone is something no one should be against

in practice anyone with any form of intelligence can see its a disaster. but like most leftist policies, they don't care for the practicalities of anything, just the sentiment behind them.

The Dead Poet · 06-25-2018, 07:52 PM

I'm still grunting away in the construction industry. I always get pain in my right knee, shoulders and back. I got me some CBD Slave and put it on before bed and before work. Been doing it for a year or so and it's done wonders.

uh-oh · 06-25-2018, 08:02 PM

word my left knee is usually my problem knee, but by fridays theyre both usually rundown. my mid back is fucked from shit posture and picking up things like a troglodyte. which i just googled and realized is my new aka. but yea when my knee got hurt i thought oh well i'll rest it but this is the first time its stayed hurt. no improvement and i can't really walk on it at all. i mean i can warm it up and hobble around but i couldn't see me being halfway productive

they weighed me on the scale though and im fatter than i've ever been.

whats the most ya'll ever weighed?? im 263. i'm a fucking DT in the 80's what HAPPENED. but word its gotta be my main problem im thinking. i just continued working like i was 220 while continually knowingly getting fat.

but im down to the last of my coca colas in the fridge, and im stocked up on salad shit (lettuce/spinach) and meats. gonna try and go keto like a trendy faggot and see if i don't die of ketoacidosis because i probably have untreated diabetes at this point lmao

but word 263 was alarming. at my fattest i was 260, a few years out of work, doing nothing but making beats. the fact i got past that, WHILE working at least 40 hours a week busting ass let me know im old and my metabolism was like wtf is happening.

wish i coulda made it to 30 like my goal i set. was relishing these days of gluttony but its the last night tonight.

waters veggies and meats from now til eternity. except sundays i will still gorge on pasta to appease the gindaloon in me. so i'll probably never be actually keto but still. figure its better than a diet of coca cola and deep fried everything

PancakeBrah · 06-25-2018, 09:00 PM

uh-oh · 06-28-2018, 12:57 PM

thanks man. its sufficiently fitting.
@PancakeBrah

nothing more on the job front yet, but i'll be going back monday and babying it/trying to.

had my follow up with a specialist today, he thinks its either the meniscus or just general cartilage, but apparently insurance (which im running through workers comp) doesn't pay for mri's unless they show they've tried treating it. so i got a giant cortisone shot and instructions to just keep babying it. if nothing changes i'm supposed to go back and get an MRI and they'll probably go in and clean it up since im young enough for that to be an option or some goofy shit.

so basically im still fucked. the hope is the cortisone shot masks the pain enough to work on it but i need to rest as much as possible and hope is it heals during the duration. think they said it lasts like 5-6 weeks.

hope this shit works i don't want surgery and more doctor visits. shit is the worst

PancakeBrah · 06-29-2018, 12:22 PM

Sounds rough man.

Eŋg · 06-29-2018, 12:53 PM

i have ligament issues most my adult life from tearing my meniscus in my late teens.

only ever had sprains but fuck me are they painful. and awkward.

i should go through my doctors and get recommended to a specialist for the mri and whatnot but i can't be fucked. i'll just keep playing football until it blows again.

soldier.
