Your knee bone’s connected to your…back bone?

Looks like I’m going under the knife again. This time it’s a lapo on my knee: chondroplasty and lateral release. Why?

Because apparently when something as fundamental as your knee is messed up…everything is messed up. Including the spinal fusion you’ve worked so hard to maintain.

As a result of multiple motorcycle accidents and crashing on my right knee (including “the” crash), along with good old fashioned genetics, my knee cap isn’t tracking right and the cartilage is just flopping around in there.  Like it’s some sort of free party at that one dude’s house, who you don’t really know but your friend kinda does, so you don’t really care what gets broken. Yeah…thanks knee cap.

Anyway, with the increased knee pain comes increased limping…comes increased back tweaking…comes increased back pain with increased spasms in weird places.

It’s all connected, friends. Take care of your WHOLE self, and things roll along just fine. Try to ignore a nagging knee pain for too long…and well, you get the idea.

Recovery should be quick. Hot Power Yoga will help. I’m strong and in decent shape. And I tell you one thing, a 30-minute lapo knee procedure ain’t no spinal fusion.

I totally got this.
