I should go to the doctor, for sure, but I have to FIND a doctor first! I don't even know where to start, especially since I want someone who's female, and preferably African-American. I found a dentist who fit the bill and I love her. Hmm, I should ask her who she goes to for a doctor.<BR/><BR/><B>Sundry,</B><BR/>Having bum knees for the rest of my life is one of the things I worry about. I think I might get a support thing for them because they've never been super strong and I do a lot of running these days. Maybe I should switch back to biking at the gym or something less high-impact.<BR/><BR/><B>Jameil,</B><BR/>Clearly, the sociology majors named Liz missed that memo! LOL!<BR/><BR/><B>Claudia,</B><BR/>That's a REALLY helpful link. I hope it's an IT band injury. I used the diagnostic tool and the part that's been hurting indicates osteoarthritis! EEK! But it does feel better today, thank goodness. I'm still resting it even though it's driving me crazy to do so. No running until I'm completely pain-free.Los Angelistahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17794296990587989214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010473.post-51235400562190605892008-05-01T15:32:00.000-07:002008-05-01T15:32:00.000-07:00Feel better soon! And you need to get yourself to a doctor, at least for a regular annual physical. Take care of you!<BR/><BR/>I took today off and have been doing some cleaning around the house and running up and the downstairs doing laundry? Hopefully I burned a few calories. I'm getting ready to look through some recipes to bake something. : )Analihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08096947438461486505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010473.post-66246255362346813762008-05-01T12:36:00.000-07:002008-05-01T12:36:00.000-07:00I'm sorry your knee hurts. That sucks! They say that most knee injuries result from an imbalance of muscles. There's a great little program at runner's world: http://www.runnersworld.com/runnersbody/ It will help you figure out what's going on and what to do. My guess is you have an IT band injury. That's the most common to cause knee pain.<BR/><BR/>((hug)) Hope you feel better.On a limb with Claudiahttp://on-a-limb.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010473.post-39962267466298265392008-05-01T08:29:00.000-07:002008-05-01T08:29:00.000-07:00my sister was a kinesiology major. heat for muscles. ice for bones. and please get thee to a dr.jameil1922http://www.blogger.com/profile/02242625946552047911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010473.post-34875102429070294882008-05-01T07:22:00.000-07:002008-05-01T07:22:00.000-07:00Yeah, take care of your knees! Drop by the drugstore or sports store and pick up a fancy black support thing made specifically for knees. I have sporadic knee issues and I'm very protective of them.<BR/><BR/>My darling brother can hardly do anything any more because his knees are so messed up (due to years of being a roofer and working at steep angles.) It's really debilitating.<BR/><BR/>We love you and we want your knees to be able to carry you through all the other cool stuff you do for a lonnng time.Sundryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11395065569691894697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010473.post-90512745410645405542008-05-01T06:21:00.000-07:002008-05-01T06:21:00.000-07:00OUCH!!!!
