When it rains...it pours...

So, I had a minor surgical procedure on Friday. Nothing related to my knee issues...just a cyst on my shoulder needed to be removed. No problem...just a quick in and out procedure at the family Dr's office. I was their for about an hour in total...nothing major.
However...over the weekend...my incision, which took 2 sutchers inside and 3 outside, has now become infected. I would post a picture...but it is actually rather disgusting! My wife says that it is constantly making an angry face!
So...back to the Dr's today...and am now on antibiotics!
Just one more thing that seems to have gone wrong with me!
Oh well...what does not kill us...makes us stronger!

Long over due post...

Wow…how time flies when you are dealing with a slight case of depression and having a pity party!
My knee hurts…and not only when running now days…the only time that it does not hurt…is when I am sleeping (until my son decides to climb into Mummy and Daddy’s bed in the middle of the night and stands on my knee). I tried to push through it…and hope that the pain would subside so I could keep running…but no avail.
I paid my family Dr a visit…and somehow got referred to another Dr for a different totally unrelated medical procedure for which I am really…not…looking forward to. Back to the knee…the Dr seems to think that it might be just a little tendonitis in the knee and for the next 2 weeks…do nothing…and take ibuprofen 3x a day. I am not overly happy with medicating for the pain…but at this point I am willing to try anything to get back on track. I am just over a week away from the end of the 2 weeks…and at the moment…I still have pain in my knee. I am not sure what is going to happen…but we will keep going till the end of the 2 weeks.
I know that there is nothing that I can do…but wait…so no more pity party…no more depression…time to find some new motivation…
