Session 14

March 7, 2011

Well. this is two weeks up. So how do I feel? I feel much better than two weeks ago. That's for sure. The leg is stronger, the knee seems more stable. Nothing is near 100 percent, so who knows what's going on with the ligament. Only the MRI will reveal that truth.

So I ask the doctor when he thinks I should schedule my MRI. I notice that the first thing he jots down on my action sheet for the day is needles. Great, three days in a row. But, that's where the healing is, so better be happy. He looks up and says let's do a physical test today. Today too? I ask, we did one two days back. So he calls in Manoj and asks him for what the result of that test was. Manoj mutters a number. The doctor nods, seems satisfied and says that things are progressing.

The best part? he strikes out the needles for the day! Then he jots down the other treatment to be done and tells me that we'll do another physical on Wednesday, which would be day 16. Depending on the results of that one, I might be cleared for an MRI on Thursday itself. If not, then a day or two later.

So the moment of truth approaches. Two more days of treament for sure. It's coming up fast. I'm praying my ACL has been healing. I remember the words of the last MRI report, full partial to complete tear of the ACL. Full partial to complete tear of the MCL. I wonder what the next MRI report will disclose.

But there are procedures to be followed in the meanwhile.
