Wishing you speedy healing, Callaway, from a Triple-T veteran (tibial tubercle transposition). TLAs FTW! ;D

Thanks, SleepyDragon.

What was wrong that you needed to have this?  Was it your knee?

Yep, chondromalacia patella.

How long did you have to be on crutches for?

I hope you aren't in pain from it anymore.

I think I was using the crutches, and then later a walking stick, for around a month and a half. My surgeon told me that the procedure doesn't solve the problem for everybody, i.e. they still experience pain and difficulty walking afterward. Once everything healed and I built up some muscle strength around the knee, though, it hasn't troubled me at all. *whew* No knee replacement required, bullet dodged.

I'm glad that it worked for you.

You wouldn't have even been able to use a knee walker like mine, since it was your knee that was operated on.

I have crutches, but I fell on the stairs with them since I can't put my right foot down even for balance.

Now, I am mostly doing the stairs in my house on my butt.  I'm not sure how I will get down the front steps of my house tomorrow, since I have a doctor's appointment.

I think Paleontology is a very cool major.  Do you already have some schools in mind?

Why the 'for an Aspie...'?

They are interesting choices indeed.
