Went to the pool with the kids.  I put my son on my back and then would run.  I got a great leg workout and lungs.  My knee felt great in the pool.

Knee update!!

 

I talked to Dr. Albano 2 weeks ago about my knee because it hasn't gotten better.  I am not able to bike or run due to pain for some time. My Dr. told me that we needed to try some thing more invasive to my knee.  The plan of action was to do an ultrasound needle injection.  Basically he would take a needle and jab it in to my patella tendon (numerous times) and make it bleed.  The bleeding will help the body repair the damaged tendon.  I got a call yesterday from his office telling me they had a cancelation for today. 

If anyone wants to know what it feels like to be a human pin cushion let me know.  The plan of attack from her is to take it easy today and then start stretching tomorrow.  As soon as my knee feels good enough I can start to run or bike.  Wish me luck!!!

Went out and biked 5.1 mile.  My knee felt great as long as I didn't stand up and peddle or do a hard downward stroke.  My knee still hurts when I bend it and that is the only time it hurts.
