I have two bad knees and can sympathize. No surgery though. Have torn ligaments from lifting weights-MCL on left and the opposite on the Right. I fell face first when skiing. I keep taking my MSM Glucosamine and that is all I need. I take it before I do any work or walking over uneven ground. I take at least 1200mg of Glucosamine and Chondroitin. Research done in TX has proven that Glucosamine and Chondroitin do REPAIR ligament damage. Bone chips are another story. Make sure to see on an Xray. These surgeries are becoming like hysterectomies-the bread and butter of an orthopedic surgeon. Lynn AH-HO!

I don't go anywhere after dark any more it is too dangerous! TX used to be safe. I used to do all my grocery shopping after I got off work at 2315. I used to ride my bike at 0300 to break up a long study session when I went to NTSU (now UNT).

Lynn - MSM Glucosamine is what have kept me going for over 3 years - The dtr will probably do an MRI - believe me - surgery WILL BE MY LAST RESORT. I have to find out WHAT exactly is wrong with that old knee. They won't operate on me just because - I'll have to have a definite answer to many questions. However, it has restricted my walking to a very large extent and now this--it hasn't hurt this bad since 1994.

We lived in Massachusetts for over five years. They were not friendly up there. They didn't like military kids because we weren't staying. Culturally it was very different. We said the Pledge of Allegiance in English but sang the French National Anthem at the start of school every day. This was topped off with "God save the Common Wealth of Massachusetts"! Lynn Also French was mandatory until high school. > [Original Message] > From: <SandKatC@aol.com> > To: <MAUPIN-CHAT-L@rootsweb.com> > Date: 10/8/02 4:13:40 PM > Subject: Re: [MAUPIN-CHAT] ROLLING UP THE STREETS? > > > In a message dated 10/8/02 3:41:30 PM, GwenStuart@msn.com writes: > > << On the other hand, when we first moved from San Antonio to a small upstate > New York town back in 1966, the people were not friendly and it was awful.

Don't know for sure yet...The swelling needed to go down - my appt with orthopedist is next Thurs 10-17 (and we leave for a week at the condo at Canyon Lake- what a bummer-as there is a NA PowWow on the South side of the Lake that w/e; Wimberly, New Braunsfel there and we were coming back on the 26 to go to the Festival.) All I know now is he said probably ligament damage - and loose bone or cartilage particles in the knee. All he said was - looks like surgery SOON. I still wear my 20" leg immobilize - he took me off Vioxx as it was giving me some problems. So I just keep my leg propped up - and take a Motrin or Advil when necessary. Still walking like a zombie. Bill is picking on me - waddling. I am praying I can schedule any surgery till I return from VA the end of November. That's it folks for now....

Yes,the "Civil War" started at 0700 and ended after dark. I had been up all night doing genealogy and had not planned to stay up during the day and watch TV. It was great!! I'm sure it will be on again. When it was on the first time I was working 1900-0700 and missed it. I have been watching a lot of reruns these last two years because I have always been at work. I would like to see the last year of "Dr.Quinn,Medicine Woman" but it is nowhere. The first couple of years have been on at 0200 and I have made a point to watch or tape them. So----Sulley is at the bottom of a cliff chased there by soldiers. I know he must live because there was a sequel where he and Dr.Mike are much older-the daughter is out of medical school. There are Ken Burns stories on PBS all this week starting with Frank Lloyd Wright.

I do not understand how areas with previous hits from storms allow building onto flood planes etc. I did see some houses built 15feet above flood level in South TX and that was not high enough. When a piece of iceberg breaks off the size of Delaware (due to global warming) that water has to go someplace. I guess Italy will never be under flood stage again! I wish I had gone to Italy before all of these antiquities were destroyed.
