Yes, a year ago,
Some carriage damage, not enough to waarent surgery.
The big issue is the week I was let out out the hospital from my stroke, I’m pretty sure I got a bad ACL tear.
I literally couldn’t walk for a couple of days.
I need to focus more on rehab work on it. And remember to ice it down more after exercise.
I have had issues for years with my right knee. I will need a knee replacement in to 5 to 7 years according to my doctor based on my MRI last year.
Got a synvisc injection which gave me about 90% relief and lasted about 4 months. Insurance only approves it once every 6 months so I had to get a cortisone injection to fill the gap before the next synvisc injection which was about three weeks ago. Might be worth checking into.
Thanks for the information.
And thanks for the comment on my lifting. 
Looking buff, those PRs are helping out. Howz the new(ish) team going?
We’re running about the middle of the league right now.
It’s a much faster paced game then the level my old league wanted me to play at.
It’s a lot of fun in a painful way, lol.

Well… it was my team’s bye night in league. The team getting the bye is supposed to have someone show up to scorekeep and someone to referee.
I said I would scorekeep the games, but brought my referee gear to see if maybe I can skate one of the games.
Turns out I was the ONLY one from my team to show up so…
Refereeing - 2.5 hours
My right knee was not happy at the end of that. Got home and applied ice.
Skipped lifting on Tuesday, knee and lower back needed an off day.
So today…

Actually it felt pretty good.
I don’t know about Brooklyn, but the best pizza in the Bronx is PePe’s!
I’ll have to get confirmation on that. My daughter goes to school in the Bronx.
It was several years ago, but certainly the best damn pizza I have EVER eaten.
