Ok...here are some pictures.
'1' is a picture of both knees. The arrow is pointing to the spot where it feels like I have less sensitivity than the other knee.
'2' is the right knee again showing where I feel tightness and pulling when I raise my knee. The most stress is right on the shin bone.
'3' shows me doing a PR on a knee raise without yelling or passing out...lol. It is the highest I've been able to raise my knee and not feel any pain since Monday morning. The lines show the 'line of pulling' on my knee with the dot being the main point of emphasis.
'4' shows me doing the same thing with no pain while wearing the knee brace.
Here is a pic of me and my girlfriend Nefi who says that if the IFSA-USA doctor doesn't fix me and tell me that I am going to be ok she is going to find him and show him how mean a 5' tall Greek woman can really be...lol. She looks so sweet...lol
Seriously though...I really hope for/need good news. I have better ROM today than I have had all week and I feel better about it. I still have a slight less amount of sensitivity at that one spot.
My plan is no walking events for a few weeks, no squats or clean and jerks. My bicep tendons might thank me as it is. I've been pushing my squats and sled drag a lot and have improved so much. The sled drag does put a lot of stress on my knees and quads...even in that area.
I can take bad news...I might hyperventilate and pass out...but I'll wake up and eventually take it.
