Well, as I mentioned in my last post, I went to the gym to workout on the treadmill and used on of the treadmill’s pre-set.  It had variable speeds and variable inclines.  It also seems that it was a bit too strenuous for my left knee.

It hurts like hell.

I ended up going to my primary physician today who prescribed a pretty strong anti-inflammatory drug and also referred me to an orthopedic physician.  I go see the orthopedic guy Thursday.  In the meantime, I swallow a lot of Tylenol and rest my knee. God, this bums me out to no end.  Not only because it gets in the way of my good intentions to exercise.  It also gets in the way of work…driving around, walking up steps, virtually everything.

I really hope between the anti-inflammatory and the orthopedic guys, I’ll get back up to speed soon.
