All of our local Asian spas were raided.

Headed to the Orthopedist to have my knee evaluated.

KOC or TOC?

TOC, Naylor.



Next stop MRI. Dr. Naylor confirmed that it sounds like a meniscus tear possibly with additional cartilage damage. On a positive note upon physical examination all ligaments seem to be intact, x-rays show good density in the meniscus and cartilage, and a very small amount of arthritis in the knee for a patient 18 yrs post ACL replacement. According to Dr. my knee looks better than the average 50 y/o that hasn't had any prior surgery.



I'm headed for some arthroscopic surgery, but really nothing very serious.

Spent the day at Isle of Palms and ate seafood at RB's on Shem Creek.

I'm headed for some arthroscopic surgery, but really nothing very serious.A week from Friday I'm having arthroscopic surgery to repair a partial tear in my rotator cuff. A leftover from January in Utah.

Injuries bum me

I asked my doctor if I would be able to pitch left handed after the surgery. He said yes. That's really cool since I can't do it now!

Hmmmm, outside of I'm headed to the surgical suite I wonder what this means? "Horizontal tear of the medial meniscus extending from its mid portion into the posterior horn. Nondisplaced tear of the posterior horn of the lateral meniscus as well."

Packing up for a weekend at the lake....Cheers
