Knee Update

So where am I... Went to the doc again on Friday and we discussed a plan. Physical Therapy for 2-3x week for 4 weeks. Also getting a MRI on Tuesday since the knee was swelled in an area unrelated to the ITB. Next Friday I'll see the doc again and discuss the MRI. Not expecting anything to show, but its nice to cover you basis.

So the first PT went well. Lisa did the consult in the beginning and really quickly noticed my left leg wasn't strong like the right. I hadn't noticed, but did notice when she did her resistance testing. Looks like I've favored it some... Hmm... Its not weak, but it might be aggravating the problem some. So some electro-shock therapy, some stretching and some weights and off I went. Next appt on Wednesday. I going to add the strength training to my stretching I've been doing and hopefully by Christmas this will be behind me. More later... Anyone have any MRI reading experience? :)
