What are you doing today ??

[Kwacky]

Chuff me, what a place Doncaster is. Hookers out on the streets and there was a drug deal going on in the house we were inspecting.

Two girls I went climbing with last year are coppers in Doncaster. They had some stories.......

Not a place I'd like to live.

Missus is out all day so taking the kids the Cinema this morning and swimming this afternoon.

Going to wash my bike and do some checks later tonight and then chill out with a beer watching Motogp Free Practice

Just got back from holidays. Gone from a very pleasant 30+ centigrade to a decidedly shite 16 deg C in the space of 4 hours.

What a welcome back!

Anyway had a great time and really did not want to come back.

[Bratty]

Glad you had a good holiday mate.

Hardly slept in 48 hrs had a scorching temp dam I hate man flu

[duke63]

Glad you had a good holiday mate.

Cheers, Bratty.

A brief summary of the week.

[kiwikrasher]

Today I'll be limping around doing as little as possible. Knee feels like it's settled down, but calves and hamstrings are still tight as buggery. Got the MotoGP to watch, recorded it overnight.

Gone from a very pleasant 30+ centigrade to a decidedly shite 16 deg C in the space of 4 hours.

That's what I cop coming home from work during winter, except I look forward to it cause it means I'm not working!

Glad you had a good break mate

[Kwacky]

I really do have the Monday blues today. Not long until home time

[kiwikrasher]

Ended up NOT watching the GP, bloody TIVO didn't record it. Waiting for someone to load up a torrent......

Just got back from the hospital regarding my knee follwoing my off at Snetterton.

Finally got a consultant appointment who had my MRI results. It appears the original dignosis of torn/damaged ligaments was incorrect as the MRI is showing torn meniscus cartilage. As it has now been about 7 weeks since the accident, I have not been to impressed. After the off I was given a leg brace (velcro/strappy type) and 2 crutches and sent on my way with no information on what to do. I decided after about 2 weeks to lose the brace and last week went down to 1 crutch. Due to the length of time not knowing what to do, there has been a bit of muscle wastage in my left thigh which I now have to go and have physio for .

Regarding the cartilage, he has told me to carry on with nmormal activities and wait and see:
- if i feel pain
- if my knee locks up
- if my knee gives way
The giving way is the most likely as that is what is currently happening. If any of the above continue then I will likely have to have key hole surgery to replace or repair the cartilage.

Anyway, at least the ligaments are looking ok as that would have been a real PITA.

[Kwacky]

That's crap service. Do you have private health care? It might be worth having a check up with a consultant.

[Rob]

Unfortunatley not.

I am going to speak with consultants PA later to see if they can sned me the MRI as I would quite like to get a second opinion on it without paying for another scan.

[Kwacky]

Good idea. A copy should have been sent to your GP so ask there if the hospital won't oblige.

[Deegee]

Asked about this very question re my 11yr old lads hip issue, the somewhat arrogant answer from the Conslt Radiologist was that GP's don't get the images as they aren't trained to interpret them properly, when asked he admitted he wouldn't say that to my GP's face. I'd pay for a seat if he did though.

[Kwacky]

I thought they nationalised the database so it's all there?

Anyway, you're entitled to make a request for your records and reports.
