I'll be around a WHOLE LOT MORE. I had the wonderful pleasure of blowing my knee out this morning, so I'll be sitting on my big blue ass alot more in the coming weeks.
It was grand. I stepped just wrong and my left knee did a little shimmy and then bent backwards with a sickening POP! So I sat down and popped it back to the way it's supposed to bend and then kept gagging because it hurt so bad. If someone can explain to me why your body tries to make you throw up when you have an injury like this, I'd be interested.
Anyway, I partially tore two ligaments (the two that criscross under your kneecap). Fortunately, it looks like I wont need surgery to repair it.

P.S. If you decide that you just can't live without being injured any longer, I suggest you do it at 6 AM. The emergency room is pretty empty and the ER staff are pretty cheery that time of the morning. Best hospital visit. Ever.

Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuch!
That had to hurt. The puking thing happened when I fell and broke my back a few years ago. I believe it has to do with "fight or flight" response to trauma (though how you are supposed to fight or flee while puking, let alone with that kind of injury, is beyond me).

[img]graemlins/cry.gif[/img] OUCHIEOUCHIE!!!!!! I did the same thing to the same knee when I was 16...not fun.
I dont understand the gaggy-pukey thing either, seem kinda like insult to injury to me
stay off of the knee until the doc says it's ok to hop around, i did'nt and wound up in knee surgery 'cause I was dumb!
Feel better soon Crawler!

Ouch ouch ouch...
Maybe the gagging comes from the pain and seeing your own knee bend the wrong way. I wouldn't have had the presence of mind to pop it back. I'd have just stared at it...
Eat some of those glucosamine tablets. It'll help.
