Physical Therapy

Well I went to Dr. Gibson today. He doesn't think it's a torn meniscus, but he can hear that it is crunchy in there. He was going to put me on an anti-inflammatory medicine, but Dr. Alverson had put me on the prednisone and he said that is really strong. So, I have to go to physical therapy twice a week for 3 weeks, then I have a follow-up visit with him. It's going to be a pain in the butt. I have my first appointment Wednesday.

Kurt is having his port removed on the 23rd. He was going to wait until around Christmas time, but he has lost so much weight that it is protruding from under his skin and looks like it has moved a little. Plus, it gets itchy and he is supposed to have it flushed every 6 weeks, so that will be one less thing to worry about.

Carter has a follow-up visit with his ENT on Wednesday too. He wanted to see him back 6 weeks after his tonsils/adenoids came out. It's just a routine visit, but will take up much of the day as we have to go all the way to Dublin.

Keep Ethel Rose in your thoughts on Tuesday, as she will be having surgery.
