jeffie Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 I've probably missed all the preparation stuff, but are you all ready? I've got a van with no rear seats, no trim, no floor and no roof at the moment, and I've bought nothing and packed nothing. I've also got a 24 hour blood pressure thing on my arm, which isn't good, and definitely isn't being helped by my lack of preparation!! Shit!

Curlygirl Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 @jeffie I'm sort of guessing that no floor and no roof is a bad thing!! How in hell did that happen?! I'm packed and ready. If they announced the fest tomorrow I'm good to go. Will the van be sorted in time? I know you need the van. Dear god I hope you get sorted! As for the bp, try your hardest to chill dude. Healing vibes to you dear x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curlygirl Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 I sort of accidently got drunk and had to leave my car 3 miles away! I turned up at a nurse friends to get advice on My MRI scan results... she had no clue so we drank stupid amounts of wine instead! I guess I have a walk tomorrow to get to my hair appointment tomorrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything I can do to improve them? Left knee - there is an undisplaced fracture of the lateral tibial plateau posteriorily. Low grade chondromalacia patellae is noted Right knee - detection of enchondroma in the distal femur dr said I have osteoarthritis and wear of cartilage Hi Cg Apologies for delay in replying. Let's say I was unable to do anything other than think about next week and tinker with my clashfinder! Well, what a pair of knees you have! I have to put in the disclaimer that this is a little bit like you asking your greengrocer for advice on which computer to buy. I mean, they're both 'retailers' but.... Slightly concerned by the tibial plateau fracture! Have I missed a memo? Have you had an...incident? Or are they suggesting it's a stress fracture? And who (that is, which specialty) is organising the MR and reviewing you? GP? Orthopaedics? Rheumatology? A homeopath?!! if they're saying that all of the scan findings (and so symptoms) are 'wear and tear' related then options are limited. Essentially there is oral meds, local anti-inflammatory (steroid injections- effective but finite and you can't just do them forever), physio and then...surgery I guess (please remember what I actually DO when reading this!!!). Sounds to me like you need a blooming good orthopod to assess the extent of the damage, the likely progression of that and then the relative merits/issues of each treatment option. I realise that's a bit non-commital, but it really boils down to how bad things are for you and what you're prepared to put up with. It could be that you're heading towards a new knee(s). It could be you're nowhere near that point. Come find me on Wednesday and I'll open the consulting room for you...!! love Ben x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gp sent me for X-ray and MRI and the gp gave me the results. He didn't actually see the MRI he just had it written down what the MRI people sent him. I don't know how I got the fracture? I can only assume it's old and not healing very well. He said I should be in a lot of pain with it. My reply was 'I am!' But I suppose not in as much pain as I should be. Could a mistake have been made? I wasn't able to walk for 4 days after waterskiing in December but no accident happened, it just stopped working. Thanx again for your reply, I'm going to take notes for my dr appt when I go for gold injections (I think that's what they are!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlosj Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 (edited) Happy almost holiday everyone. I've 2 days left after this one, and one of those will be spent mainly on a train to a meeting on Tuesday. Good job I'm packing the van tomorrow. Just ear plugs to buy now, against my cousin's snoring. Edit, if anyone knows of an ELO fan in London who wants a disabled access and carer tickets, I've posted them on the tickets for sale thread as my wife can't go :-( Edited June 16, 2017 by carlosj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then down to the allotment, then see my family, Chinese banquet for one and box sets tonight as MrsCJ is away, then my parents tomorrow. Full on day if I stick to it.
