I just typed a big, long message, but I’m still getting used to a new laptop and some how deleted it all! How frustrating. Long story short, I made a mistake … it’s a torn medial meniscus in my left knee, not a torn MCL. I don’t know what made me type that. History of degenerative joint disease. Series of Orthovisc injections in my right knee about three years ago and partial right claviculectomy eight years ago. I know my extra weight is making my knees worse … I absolutely must get back on track. I had lost 50 pounds in 2008/2009. I’ve gained almost all of it back, so this knee stuff is definitely my fault.
