The ortho thinks that there may be some cartilage stuck in my joint, preventing my knee from bending. I can get to an 85 degree angle or so, but not beyond that....he said he can feel something stopping it from bending, like it just comes to a stop and won't go further.
I've been thinking that it can't go further b/c it hurts and I'm just being a baby over it. So I'm glad to know that this isn't all in my head.
Waiting on someone to call with an MRI appointment, and who knows when that will be since I really can't leave during the first week of the month (we're super short handed at work), but I'm sure once my boss finds out about this he'll tell me to go whenever I can get in first. Ugh, I know the "why me" attitude is annoying, but whyTF is this happening?!

I'm sorry, that is rough. Try to stay positive though. It's easy to fall in to the why me's but they won't help you in the least. Try to take some time and do something nice for yourself. I hope you have some answers soon.
So sorry that you are still having such pain! I am glad that a doctor confirmed what you were feeling though. Hopefully, that is the first step to recovery.
Thanks girls. Yeah, I'm going to call the doctor's office by noon if I haven't heard from them before. My boss pretty much said the same thing you all did about getting in ASAP.
