Went to the osteo today to get my knee looked at. Got some X-rays and a physical exam. The diagnosis is arthritis, with some bone spurs. Doctor unable to make a more definitive diagnosis or prescribe treatment, because apparently MRI machines and arthoscopic instruments are just two more things that aren't made in 7X.
About what I expected. Along with a plug for gastric bypass -- my polite yet short reply that it's contraindicated for patients with binge eating disorders and even if that wasn't an issue the long-term side effects disincline me to consider it an option -- seemed to leave him without an answer. Polite enough, I guess. Helpful in that I know there's nothing icky going on in there like cancer.
So it looks like I just got a bum knee, and I have to learn to live with it. Been doing so for a while now.
Enough. Topic shift!
Name something about your body that you like.
That's going to become difficult in fairly short order.
**Maybe not as much as you think.**
Oh hey, look who's here.
**Introduce me later, sweetheart. Tell me something about your body that you like.**
My eyes.
I like how they've got tiny yellow flecks right around the pupils, and I like how they can look like pretty much any color. Depends on what I'm wearing. They're nice eyes. Pretty even.
