Ah..crap.
 

Since Friday, my knee was really bugging me. It turns out I have some temporary disease where my knee and shin meet. I can't actually recall what it was, but it really hurts. I can't walk that good, but that doesn't mean I can't walk at all. But what's really bugging me is that the doctor said that in some cases this can last for a year.

Oh well..things should get better soon. I have to take 2 pills a day for 2 weeks. That means I can't do gym class for that long. I don't mind really. :P

Is that so? Want us to send you a card or something? :roll:

Knee problems suck.

Get well soon! :D

Nah..I just wanted to create a topic. I couldn't think of anything, so I just put this. :D

Doctor's say I have a condition called "Ugly". There is no cure for a case this bad.

-=Snort=-

I was gonna say is it Osgood Schlatter's Disease? Cuz i got that in both knees and it prevented me from playing baseball last year.

Yeah knee problems suck. My knees are destroyed. Same as my back. Which ruins my plans for playing ice hockey at a competitive level ever again.

I hear that. Knee problems stink.

Does anyone remember that Mexican wrestler from Mad TV?

He used to always say:

"I break...with my knee!" :lol:

Yes! That's what it's called. I forgot it. Thanks for reminding me.

Doesn't it just suck?

Yes it does!! It takes so long to bend down to look at someting. (bending into a squatting position) And once i got kicked in the knee (you know right on that lump that is there) and i was down for like 10 mins.

Edit: Oh yea, almost forgot. I got OSD in 7th grade and i still have it now in 10th grade. This sucks a lot. And another thing i forgot was that it really affects your jumping and running ability.

You still have it?! Damn..that sucks! I just got it on Friday, but I hope I don't have it for as long as you do! The doctor said it can last up to 1-2 years. Hopefully the perscription he gave me will work and I'll be fine in 2 weeks.. but reading your posts makes me a bit pessimistic. :(

I hate going up the stairs though. It really hurts. But good thing it's only in my left leg.

I aswell am in Grade 10, and I may have to drop gym. I doesn't really matter, because I already got the credit last year in Grade 9. But..I don't really know any other classes to take.

Re: Ah..crap.
 

I have a disease that degenerates the cartiladge in my knee, and then I went and injured myself running track, and tore 3 ligaments. I'm all sorts of messed up lol.

But as for you, get well soon d00d

Yeesh, leg injuries...

I've had the worst year and a half anyone could ever want...

I have a hormonal disease...superfast healing, continuous growth, so i'm still getting taller, and all sorts of other issues. I was put on 'the pill' to fix it, and almost got killed by a huge blood clot in my leg. It filled up 1/3 of my entire right leg. I was so close to getting a clot in my lung or brain, and dying, I'm lucky to be here now...

Well, I finally got off the pill and the blood-thinners, only to get involved in a bike crash. I skidded on dirt, and landed on the same leg. I thought I was gonna turn blue on that side or get another killer blood clot. I ended up with a separated shoulder, dislocated arm, and a nasty case of roadrash I'm still trying to heal from on my forearm.

The amazing thing is, I only took less than a month to completely heal, thanks to the hormonal disease in the first place. I was actually described as 'superhuman' by the physical therapy people. :D

Heh, being part reptile helps too... ;) :P :D

Haha..that's cool. I never heard of hormonal disease.

Well sh**.. Since I took my pills for the first time yesterday, my leg is feeling so much better! Although does still hurt a bit, I think I'll be fine by Wednesday.

that sucks, hope you get well soon.

Glad you're feeling a bit better. Hope you feel all the way better soon. :)

Maybe thats why it hasn't gotten better. No Drugs!!! Even with physical therapy it hasn't gotten too much better. By the way it helps a lot to just sit with you legs strait out and massage your knees. That is how i manage to keep Gym. I massage it in the class before and my knees feel great. They also make these bands that you can put around your knee to help when doing sports.

You mean, a knee brace. :lol:

No, i dont. It is something different. It is like one inch thick and has a thick piece of foam that is positioned directly under the kneecap.

Oh.. :|

I feel stupid. :(

It's ok i could have worded it better.

for a month, I had lower back problems due to a horseback riding accident. I fell onto my back. My back muscles tightened up and they were pinching on my sciatic nerve, which goes all of the way down to your foot. I could not anything for a week and still had to go to work.

That sucks. We don't have it nearly as bad as you did.

Believe me.....it was horrible, my worst riding accident in 14 years.

I'll bet.

I was very close to hurting my spine.

Geez since 7th grade and now in grade 10? That sucks man I hope you get it over with soon. Also Stone it's good to hear it's clearing up pretty fast I hope it is cleared up in the 2 weeks.
