Hi guys,
Well you might be seeing a little more of me on here. I blew out my knee last night, ruptured patella tendon. It's what connects your knee cap to your shin, so with that disconnected I cannot extend my lower leg by my self. It's in an immobilizer right now to keep it straight.
I have a Orthopedic appointment at 2:00 today, that is just semantics though I will be having surgery asap. It's pretty invasive surgery too, they can't do it arthroscopic and it sounds like a long recovery, 6 weeks in an immobilizer with no weight bearing and only passive therapy. Should be good as new in 6 months.
So I just ordered myself up a laptop, so I can use the computer while my leg is straight out in front of me, kinda tough to sit at a desk.
Oh, and for those wondering how I did it, I was jumping on the trampoline with my kids, from what I've read it was ready to let go at anytime.
