The Beauty of Mathematics

Knees

I had my knee scoped to repair a torn meniscus on Monday, December 27th. I hoped it would be completely repaired and that everything would be back to normal. Or better. Bad news: I need a total knee replacement sometime soon. My knee hurts all the time and today Dr. Nelson gave me a cortizone shot, which has helped tremendously. I have another appointment in two weeks to see how it's doing. He didn't seem too positive when I asked if either exercise (biking, eliptical) would strengthen my knee or if glucosomine would help. Looks like I have a course correction coming up. No more walking/running. I'll sure miss participating in the 5-ks.
