i went too see doc on sunday to take xray. n it was good that nothing happened to the bones. since my knee was swelling it had to be a muscle(S). n only MRI can actually say wat happened to my knee. n it can only be done on monday cos the MRI centre in Mount Alvernia was closed on Sunday.
on mon, went for MRI in the morning. report came back in the afternoon. was immediately sent to a specialist. according to the report, i tore my medial meniscus quite badly. doc also said that i might also had torn my ACL though the MRI scan shows that my ACL is actually fine but its always 10-15% not accurate. the doc then asked me wen do i want to have my knee done. i replied asap. and he replied THIS EVENING! i was like.. wah.. tis one really fast la. one thing that really scare me to death was that the doc said that my middle meniscus will take 6 wks to recover but during the op if he sees that the ACL is damage and it needs reconstruction, he will reconstruct it on the spot and that means i will be out for 6 months. i was really scared that i might miss this rugby season. the last rugby school season of my life. before my op, melays, huilin n ena came by.
after the op, the first thing wen i woke up was to ask pple arnd me what happened to my knee in particular ACL. the nurses were like... mr khairul you will have to wait till the doctor comes by later and tell u k. being all sedated n stuff i didnt have enough energy to purse in the matter. i just went back to my stoning position. once back in my room, started puking like mad. puke here n there. phil, javier n eugene came by after my op. sorry i all sedated and puking everywhere. doc then came n told me the good news that there was nothing wrong with my ACL and my middle meniscus is "repaired". so this means im 6 weeks out.
tue and wed didnt really do anything much but stone and what really touched me was my friends who visited me. thanks guys u pple really brought that smile. for others u cant make it, thanks for ur SMSes! without u pple, i think i would have just died of boredom there.
here is a thank you from me to all those that came: (i will try my best to remember all those that came)
