Strained and contused MCL, water on the knee, torn medial and lateral meniscus, and (the topper on the cake) signs of degenerative disease... good old arthritis. Will consult with an orthopedic surgeon soon.…

They say I have until September (after which I'd have to repeat the two shot program) but they are also having trouble getting more vaccine. Last time they got a batch in, I made an appointment to get the secound shot. By the time I got in…
