Eric's House Of Ego

I have been a little quiet on my knee and other stuff lately. Mostly because things are going so well.

My major problem now is that I sat on a couch for 4 months waiting for the surgery. I'm in terrible shape. That is changing. I put on a bit of weight and am working on losing that and more. I am more mobile than I have been in a year and a half.

The main thing is, I don't have any pain. To be more correct, I don't have any pain that isn't ordinary middle aged stuff. I don't want to get out of bed in the morning, but, admittedly, a lot of that is because I have a warm cuddly Lizzie there.

Memorial Day I was busy. We got to the venue at noon to see the start of things. We left for a couple hours in the middle of the day and then I was back until midnight for the drum jam. I couldn't have done that even a month ago.

I am feeling better and better all the time. I am hoping on being back to where I want to be in time for the fall shows. I hate playing shows sitting down. I'm still doing it for the time being, but I hate it.

In an hour or so I head out to see the doctor about the MRI on my knee. Here's hoping that it feeling better over the last week or two is a good sign and surgery isn't necessary.

I've been limping for awhile now. I went to the doctor for my usual checkup this week. He took a look at it and has referred me to a specialist. Best case scenario I need a cortisone shot. Worst case scenario I have a torn meniscus (I had to look it up too).

It's been a fun few weeks.
