Knees are bullshit.
No. And yes. It's always sudden.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I...may not be going to get sushi for dinner and seeing a movie. This shit really hurts if I move at all. It doesn't hurt as long as I have my leg propped up and don't move.
Fortunately, we are so decrepit and falling apart that we have many icepacks.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Yeah, don't make it worse.
Is an ER visit getting serious consideration?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Ugh Steph, knees really are the worst when they don't knee properly.

Is an ER visit getting serious consideration?
If it seems worse tomorrow, then yes. But I figure I can do rest, ice, compression, elevation, and ibuprofen at home for the first 24 hours and see if that calms it down.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I'm sorry your knee isn't kneeing properly, Steph.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I've reached the life stage where one or the other knee decides its not happy, without much in the way of doing anything that should have excited it. I fear the day when one of them will just stay like that....
