One of the joys of this time of year is black ice.
I took a tumble heading out for work this morning and landed HARD, hyper-extending my knee. I didn’t think I’d get back up, but when I did I could put full weight on the leg, so off to work.
Overall I think I’ll mend without incident, but it aches like a sonofabitch, and I think this evening I’d rather be horizontal.
We’ll see how I feel in the morning.
I’ll take bets on how you’ll feel in the morning. Like hell.
Have a martini! Dr. bluesun’s orders!
Aye a Martini an d maybe a bit of preventive pain medication, as that’ll hurt even more come mornin’
Good luck man
I hope you feel better.
Now..if you would just move down here where its, well,… warmer.
My advice to you….

Did that two weeks ago. Didn’t tear ACL/MCL but partial tear of the hamstring and Sartorius… 6 months in a soft brace and more @!$ rehab… sigh
Shit NFO, that SUCKS! My knee is actually feeling pretty good, and my ankle is a bit stiff, and I suspect my morning walk to work will loosen it up a good bit.
Seems I was amazingly lucky with that fall. I’m still amazed a fall that felt THAT BAD didn’t result in more damage. My sympathy with you man. I was sure I was in the same boat as you when I was laying on my back like a turtle.
