I'm really sorry to hear about this. <BR/><BR/>I guess not needing surgery is a good thing - particularly if there are generally a lot of potential problems post-surgery. I like the surgeon's attitude about this (i.e., wanting a 2nd opinion). I hope it heals well on its own. It's good to hear that your parents are going to come in to help out. Don't be shy to accept the help too!PGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02160883537054763513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28553339.post-117809707277158152008-07-07T23:05:00.000-07:002008-07-07T23:05:00.000-07:00oh my gosh, you poor thing. that sounds awful! as ...oh my gosh, you poor thing. that sounds awful! as if flying wasn't bad enough, then add in the stress! i hope things get better real soon!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28553339.post-76053400080746749772008-07-07T22:09:00.000-07:002008-07-07T22:09:00.000-07:00That's awful.

I cringe to think about the times I've traveled either without it, or without bringing along my policy number and info. Plam, you should have it as part of your university's benefits package - every place I've ever worked at has had it. Definitely use it!!<BR/><BR/>Sis - Yeah, I forgot to say about the second opinion: One thing that made me like this orthopedic surgeon in Home City was that he made sure to get a second opinion...he told me after the first time I saw him that he was thinking it might not need surgery, but that he wanted to consult with a colleague before saying so definitively. I appreciated that a lot. And sure enough, the colleague also agreed that the major surgery that would be required would not have outcomes that justified the hellishness. <BR/><BR/>And yeah, pilates - I might go back to it...I did it years and years ago, and stopped - I'm really such a cardio girl. Now that I'm going to be unable to do my cardio for weeks and weeks, I'm going to have to look at other options...pilates is going to be one of them. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for the well wishes!Hilairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09033740943173352249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28553339.post-85752819921254269842008-07-07T19:31:00.000-07:002008-07-07T19:31:00.000-07:00Oh no!

And look into physical therapy for recuperating --- I had to do that for my dislocations.
