Were you injured?

No. A lack of med care growing up.

I had a tumor growing for some yrs until I couldn't walk.
was given 6 month. Imbeded in the side of my rt. knee.

Early mid 90s had Goldthwait Patellar Tendon Transfer,
IT band release, syovectomy and meniscectomy, etc.
on both knees.
Than a few other surgeries.
11/94 had a total knee replacement as nothing left of rt knee. I was in my 40s.
Due to the tumor earlier, etc. I have Arthrofibrosis,
adhesive capsulitis, chronic impingement syndrome, around
my totak knee replacement. They did a knee manipulation,
etc. didn't help. The leg is bent back . -10 extension.
All the time Working full time. PT was murder.

In 7/03 I had a new part put in my replacement that wore out. That was 3 months after my cancer surgery.
Haven't gotten to the neck and lower back stuff but you
get the point.
