Discussion: Doesn't sound good

Have you had a lot of operations on that knee before? And how did it happen - a single incident or sworn through tear? Commiserations. I assume this makes ny marathon difficult?

Yeah, not great. I had an arthroscopy on the medial meniscus in this knee a few years ago, hence the pessimism on the doc's part re a second one - probably just arthritis now. The MRI will tell us more. He has me on heavy anti-inflames and reckons that a Synvisc type injection and orthotics might work. I can keep running slowly if pain is okay. I see lots more cycling in my future!

cycling is the way of all runners eventually it seems. Prosseri is already there!

I am still in a state of denial :-). But just as well I also enjoy cycling!
