The only one to really rival it would be Lollapalooza in downtown Chicago. But even that is contained into Grant Park and maintains a festival atmosphere. I could be wrong, but it seems that Life is Beautiful is nothing more than a series of disconnected staging areas with none of the really fun random festival stuff."I'm anti, can't no government handle a commando / Your man don't want it, Trump's a bitch!

I would have just told you to eat/drink plenty of carbs, some protein, and drink plenty of water. For carbs, I would have carbo-loaded before with some complex carbs and then used a carb-loaded powder during and in between legs.Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

Originally posted by Moliere View PostI'm curious how the surgery went. Mine is coming up this week.
As far as I know, the IT release was successful. He said the meniscus was torn, so I think he did some clean-up inside the knee. I have to stay on crutches until I see him on Thursday. I've got tons of pain meds but don't need them. I was finally able to take off all the bandages today. I've got a 1.5 inch or so incision on the right side of the knee, and another three small cuts for the scope. He said full recovery would be four months.
When I changed after church today, my knee and surrounding area was fat--water weight. Maybe I'm vain, but I don't want to ever look like that again. I'm looking forward to the physical therapy. I plan to be fully recovered well ahead of schedule.

Originally posted by Bo Diddley View PostWent under the knife on Tuesday. I was still pretty out of it when he came and talked to me afterwards, so I'm piecing some of this together on the testimony of Mrs. Diddley. On top of doing the IT release, he asked if I would be ok with doing a scope of the knee since I've never had that or an MRI done. So we ended up with both of those procedures.

So did they do the IT release at the knee? I've seen/heard of it being there or at the hip. My doc will do it nearer the hip at the greater tronchantor bursa."Discipleship is not a spectator sport.

Originally posted by Bo Diddley View PostSo how did your surgery go? My doctor made me use crutches until he saw me this morning. I'll be starting physical therapy next week. He told me the real danger is not to overdo it. He said people start to feel good and then push it too hard too early.
I can walk without crutches but it cuases some pain to do so so I'm using crutches pretty much anytime I get up. But I'm completely mobile. I have a follow up appt in about 10 days and if that goes well I should be starting some light running about a week after that appt."Discipleship is not a spectator sport.

Originally posted by Moliere View PostAs far as I know the surgery went well. My doc said he cut a 10cm line in the It band and then cut out a bit more on the sides. In all, the surgery took maybe 1 hour 30 mins, but I really don't know since the anesthesia really did a number on me. I've been sleeping off and on since I got home. I'm taking narcotics for the pain and with that comes the nausea and drowsiness. I tried getting some work done today but I struggle to concentrate because of the pain meds. Tomorrow I can take the dressing off of my hip and maybe then begin to use the prescription patch stuff the pharmacy gave me, which is supposed to not be so difficult on my stomach and head.
