Anyway, I'll hold onto the board for a few days if someone wants it, otherwise it's going to Staten Island or Jersey in a contractors sack.
Make a bench out of it...

Hill Farmstead prices have been rising like a rocket, but people keep buying it so I can't blame them. Lots of $15 750ml bottles there now. $16 2L growlers, $10 750 growlers...
The Cyst is a very strong indicator of maniscus damage. Just got scoped 2 eeks ago to drain one and get half my maniscus removed. Likely some maniscus damage in your knee. Also, MRIs are NOT the "case closed" diagnosis. My experience has been tht the MRI can confirm diagnosis based on other symptoms, but can also mislead. They don't know until they scope. Personally, I woud recomend scopeing as soon as possble after knee injuries. You will know 100 percent what's up, cleaning up minor damage can reduce symptoms dramatically, and recovey for a fit person is almost nil. Jiu Jistsu today, 13 days after somewhat significant scopeage. Also, knee damage starting so young for you....advice from a 40 yo....smooth, smooth, smooth. Get smooth. The clock is ticking on that limb.Quote:

Lawsons's in a can? Competition can be a wonderful thing.

The trouble with partial removals is that they initiate a series of later partial removals to even things out. 10-15 years is the usual duration of the first one for recreationalists, but subsequent "repairs" are increasingly frequent. Competetive Pro/Am/Coll athletes usually need repairs more frequently after that first one.
The result of all of that messing about in the knee is osteoarthritis...every time! Do not decieve yourself. TKR will be in the future of anyone having that first menisectomy..that is, if they push themselves and even if they do so smoothly.
Okay, that's the bad news. In between all the surgeries the athlete will be able to pursue their passion and mostly without NSAIDs.
My case is typical in terms of the knee surgeries, 1977 injury, full zipper surgery '78 and '79 were my best seasons and all the way to '88 I had very satisfactory results in my chosen pain-sport. That end point was by forced retirement, under a Chevvy the hard way...knees were working well, the new injuries did my career in.
After a three year recovery, I resumed an active recreational life, climbing/skiing/cycling. The knee required medical intervention (injections or repairs) several times and then a decade of Osteoarthritis suffering...microfracture surgery helped, but knee pain was a constant and it got worse. Then seeing Billie Jean King's story about her TKR got me going. After three excruciatingly painful months of recovery, the next three years have been rather fine..so fine I have replaced a bunch of my old climbing gear.
Surgery will start the cycle. Decide based on facts. The Docs will be constrained by ethics to tell you some of the above, but they will also want to make their living.
Think about it and then go with your decision in the most knowledgeable and intentional way you can.
FIFY. :wink:Quote:

This is a big reason I prefer touring to riding lifts. I'm approaching 40. I'm lucky to have gumby knees and ankles, but I coach high school wrestling and my body doesn't recover the way it did 10 years ago. I'm inevitably banged up for a significant portion of the ski season. I find day of touring is often a lot more conducive to nursing an injury than a day riding lifts because the number and intensity of impacts is less.Quote:

As said ^^ poor form will also cause you to use your knees for mobility during a turn.
you are them man thanks....Quote:

Can prices at local watering holes up here run from anywhere to $5 on the cheap side to around $7 for most places in the BTV area with retail for a 4 pack still at $12.99 for most with a few trying to gouge you for an extra $2. I have noticed a much larger supply at all the local outlets in the last few weeks and one local store owner to me told me he is getting approx. 25% more each week with deliveries coming in 2x per week as opposed to the typical one day before the retail shop shut down.Quote:

DaveVT - Sounds like a man with a lot of experience with knee issues and glad to hear it went so well. I can confirm that my ortho said the same thing about scoping if there is any question about meniscus damage, no way to know for sure from an mri what the full extent is until you get in there. Even worse, unlike an mcl, meniscus damage has no way of repairing itself, it will only get worse without proper repair. Quite luckily and surprisingly, he did not think I had any meniscus damage based on the mri and where I had pain...hopefully, his assessment was on target and I will not have any lingering issues.
Robrox - Would love to see Lawson's expand and do some canning but don't count on it, not his philosophy or ambition from what I seen/read. Something about the name Sean/Shaun and brewing prowess I guess.
It looks like I'll be in BTV on Sun/Mon. I figure since I'll be at VT Homebrew Supply getting ingredients for a Scottish Ale, a walk across the lot to the Bevvy Whorehouse from some HT, Lawsons, etc. is called for.
Both true!Quote:

Wow, thank you all for the community response. Very helpful information. Regardless of what this doctor has to say about the mri I definitely want another look from someone.
Interesting stuff about the possible correlation to meniscus damage and cysts Dave, if you hadn't said anything I would have never even thought about it. Will definitely bring that up when I go in.
The current state of the knee is puzzling to me. It first began to get noticeably painful (mostly dull pain, sometimes sharp) over the summer. Before then it was only slightly discomforting for at most a month and half, and I stopped skiing the first week in April. It has never physically limited me and that's why I waited so long for the mri (stupid on my part). It has never actually bothered me while doing anything physically actually, hockey, biking, hiking, short distance runs; sometimes a bit of pain a day or two after. The worst is extended periods of sitting, then it will hurt afterwards (full extension and full crouch). Also still haven't been on skis yet this season, so I don't know how it will feel on the slopes.
I really have no clue, but enough, I don't want to cunt this thread up with too much injury talk. I have some reading to do in the gimp section.
At least it's a short walk an you won't waste much time. The window to get Lawson's is about 90 minutes Friday afternoon. Not sure about HT with the upped distribution but that used to be a window of a couple of hours Wednesday afternoon.Quote:

No pics of sweet carves but instead a question. WHAT THE FUCK IS THE DEAL WITH THE STUPID MAGIC CARPET LIKE AUTOMATED LOADING AND UNLOADING ZONES? Might the dumbest, least sensible "advance" in the history of skiing. I fucking hate them.
There, I feel better now.
