Guest guest Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 Thanks, Jackie. You're a sweetie.I'm just getting back to you on this--inundated a bit with emails.I go at 3:30 today to see the ortho and follow-up on the MRI results.My knee is feeling remarkably better, and I'm tempted to cancel, butI know I should at least go and see what the report says.love you my friend,KateTo: MSersLife Sent: Friday, November 11, 2011 9:40 AMSubject: RE: My knee I’ll bet you’ll have to do some type of strengthening exercises after the injury heals enough. But that shouldn’t be too hard at home. Toradol is an anti-inflam, and the injections are used I think for those who have trouble with GI issues taking pill form. Maybe they will give you a cortisone shot if needed to help with the healing?I’m doing better, almost have full range of motion back. Have to be careful, no sudden movements, or overhead reaching. Still typing with pencil. [a pain, and slow]YOU take care of you too Kate,……in my prayers w/love Jackie From: MSersLife [mailto:MSersLife ] On Behalf Of Kate RothschildSent: Thursday, November 10, 2011 8:49 AMTo: MSersLife Subject: Re: My knee Thanks, Jackie. Yeah, that's what I'm worried about. I certainly don't want to reinjure it. The pain alone is making me baby myself. I wonder if they will order PT for me, as I don't know if I can rehab on my own.I wonder if Toradol is appropriate for me and my pain...?You take care of YOU, Jackie. Know how much you are loved.Your friend, Kate To: MSersLife Sent: Thursday, November 10, 2011 2:53 AMSubject: RE: My knee I’M SO SORRY YOU HAVE THIS BAD OF AN INJURY. HOPEFULLY IT WILL HEAL ON ITS OWN. PLEASE DO WHAT THE DR. SAYS BECAUSE KNEE INJURIES CAN TAKE A LONG TIME TO HEAL. AND CAN GET RE-INJURED FAST.
