go figure...

So I finally sucked it up and joined the gym last night.. I joined Bally's so I can go with Fh. I did some light aerobic stuff, 15 min on treadmill, light jogging, and 15 on the elliptical.. by no means did I go overboard. Yet this morning I wake up with serious pain in my knees! I've always had discomfort, but not this sharp. So I went to the doctor, and foudn out I have something, which is aparently common in young women. Don't remember the name but it basically means i have 'mobile kneecaps' - they go a little further than they're supposed to, putting strains on my cartilage, hence the pain.

So i have to take it easy til the pain goes away and stay away from certain exercises... but atleast I finally know whats up with my knees... and I got to leave work early to see the Dr. :o)

And I got stuff done.. like my passport stuff in!

You should try Physical Therapy to strengthen the surrounding muscles. It can make a world of difference!!!
