I've had many new things happen to me since I've posted on this blog last time... I've been vegetarian for a little over a month! Yay! There have also been some advances with me, physically. My left knee has seriously been hurting really bad lately. It got to the point two nights ago, where I couldn't put any weight on it at all. My mom told me that I needed to go to the doctor, just in case something's wrong with it. Well, something is. I went to the doctor yesterday, and they did two x-rays. The x-rays show that my knee is abnormal (great!). There is supposed to be an even spacing between your femur (thigh bone) and your fibula (calf bone). Well, mine aren't evenly spaced. They're almost touching on one side, and really far apart on the other side. Not good. My doctor referred me to go to an orthopedist (bone doctor). I'm really really nervous. She thinks that there is some soft tissue damage, such as a stretched/ripped tendon or ligament. If it's what I think it is, then my ACL's are probably messed up. If that's the case, and they're torn, I may have to get surgery, which REALLY scares me. I've never had surgery before and I don't know what to expect out of any of this.
All I know to say is, prayers are definetly appreciated and welcomed. God is looking over me and protecting me right at this very moment and I know it.
That's just about all of the updates. Because of all this, I'm prescribed to Mobic, an anti-inflammatory medicine that makes my stomach dance in not-so-fun ways. Plus, I'm missing work. Not good. But, I do have a doctor's note.
Wish me luck!!!!
