    Hey, I used to live over there! Well, about another mile east of that Perkins, but it was close!

    They suck. At least with a shoulder issue you can still walk around and do errands and whatnot. With an injured knee, walking becomes a huge hurdle, which makes you sit on the couch all the time and drives you insane.

    But, I think I've used up my meniscus enough and can't tear it again (at least the right knee lateral meniscus). They're repaired it twice now for two different tears and this time, he cut out the excess meniscus that I had, so now I have a normal sized meniscus. Which means if I tear it again, they'll cut out more which leads to earlier onset of arthritis. Granted, I'll still have arthritis in that knee in 5-10yrs, I actually already have signs of it.

    After my knee op, I got into breaking bad. Well, watching season 1 years ago and didn't really get hooked.

    Now, I'm addicted to it. The show gets really good actually, and I look forward to each new episode almost as much as The Walking Dead.

    They can look at the cartilage and see it starting to soften and wear down. In several areas, it looks almost frayed. It showed up in the MRI and the radiologist caught it and the doc confirmed it with pictures during the surgery, that he printed out and gave to me, which I'm not gonna lie is pretty awesome!

    eta: The pictures are awesome, not the onset of arthritis at 28yo.

    I'm a Walking Dead fanatic.... just got the season 3 CD the other day.

    Seems 'ol AMC has some pretty high rated shows going on...I know that HBO passed on the Dead, and I bet they're kicking themselves in the ass for that decision.

    Yeah, the pics of the inside of my shoulder were pretty amazing.
