Knee

My knee is stuffed.  Most serious cycling injury to date - even with my "serious" falls. I may look for my deceased grandfather's walking stick - in the spare cupboard - could make access around the house easier.  I'll contemplate taking it to work, although today it has been enough people "watching" me shuffle along.... In the meantime I am shuffling along and overdosing on Neurofen.  I don't really know how to manage injuries.  Taking Neurofen is helping, I think.

In looking at this picuture of a knee, I would self diagnose that the part of my knee I injured was the Articular cartialage. So, I guess I should be glad it wasn't the kneecap.


 

I don't think the knee is broken or anything. Just seriously sprained.  I wont be riding to Martinborough on Wednesday, and not sure if I will get to the gym this week, or Martinborough on Saturday.

Contemplated going to my GP, but I've been having a GP sabbatical.....and that would mean fronting up to my weight gain - which I will do, just not today. 

I remind myself, these are small scarifices.  Only though the injuries do you build the resilence, and learn.  Or something like that.
