My knee is better today. It's doesn't hurt much, per se, it just sorta "feels funny" in the back. I'm so glad the majority of the pain is gone, I'm sure it will be fine in a day or two.

What??? You, of all people, know better than to wait it out!!! If you have it checked out, and it is something minor, you can treat it before it becomes something major!!!

Just sayin'

LOL! Oh Judy! I am the QUEEN of waiting it out!!! When you have as much medical knowledge as I do, you can pretty much tell when something is going to be OK - or not!

If I hadn't lived with gimpy knees for 44 years, I probably would go to the doctor now, but I know what they would say and there really isn't anything to be done at this time, for either of the knees.

I think I'll probably have to have the knee with the missing ACL replaced at some time - but then again, most people with an injury this old (44 years ago) have arthritis after this long, but I do not, so maybe I will escape the replacement, but probably not. The good knee that hurt yesterday, well it takes a lot of punishment since I defer to it for all things. Thus, it may actually wear out before the bad knee, if that makes any sense.

It's OK, don't worry about me, I just needed to whine and cry a bit . You can be sure though, if it keeps acting up and I have pain longer than a couple of days, I will go to the doctor.

You can whine whenever you want, Lord knows I've been doing more than my share. I imagine that I'll need my knees replaced someday. I had two uncles with bad knees, my older brother has horribly bad knees and one had some kind of cancer in it. Mine hurt real bad some days...not so much others. Mostly when I get up or down. I really need to go have mine checked and I will.....soon.

That does make sense Gayle. You sound like you know what's up with your knee, and you know so much about the body and health, so I will calm down!

Glad your knee feels better! Weird that it happened at night, huh?
