The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard
The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.
We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.
We really hope you all will join us on Discord and think you will like the platform. Use the invite link below to join.

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.

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.

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."
