Hi,
I fell about 2 weeks ago-- I had xrays
and a mri nothing was shown on theese-
ive been in the hospital because I have
soooooo much pain-- they gave me
morphine-- anyways my whole leg was black
and blue-- it went down to my foot-- its
still very much swollen- (my knee) when I
was in the hosptial they drained my knee
and my shin to get some blood out-- but
almost 3 weeks later-- im still having
extreeme pain I cant bend my knee or put
wieght on it-- my dr thinks hell put me
through phyical therapy-- ouchhhhhhh but
do you think they could have missed
soemthing in the mri? What should I do?
Is there something that they coud do
surgically to fix it? Even thoughthe mri
didnt show any torn ligaments or broken
bones?
Thks

Don't Know What to Do Posted: 12-08-03 16:49pm
Get a second opinion esp. If you are
still hurting so much at present and can't
bend the it! Do you have enough pain med
to get through pt if that is what is
required??
