I just had 20cc of fluid drained off my right knee, then injected with steroid/anesthetic, on Daypro for 2 weeks, no riding for 2 weeks, I guess it's time to refoam??!?!?!

He is sending the fluid out for lab tests, it looked ok he said but just to be safe.

I'm really glad I went in, I'd rather prevent serious damage now than just keep riding/pumping ibuprofen all summer then really have it messed up.

Was it swollen, impeding motion, or just hurt like a really bad annoyance? Get well! :beerchug:

Way to go with the 'roids man. We've all seen what Bond's can do with the juice... let's see what it can do for your riding.

Heal up bro

When doing a quad stretch, once I got the knee up close to full bend it would get really tight, which was from the fluid inside. It's been that way all year, but after riding 1.5 tanks in 3 hours on Sunday in Nashville, it flared up quite a bit worse so I knew I needed to get it looked at.

Just poke it with a needle :biggthumpup: Does anyone remember that video or pic of Joe Kenny draining fluid off his knee on his sail boat while in Mexico?

Just over a week since draining, wow. About 2 days after, the steroid took effect and around Monday it felt like it's physically the same as the other, meaning it's not mushy anymore.

I had my right ankle fixed years ago from a soccer injury, kind of the same treatment and it really worked, so I'm definitely following the instructions so I don't have problems down the road.

Hey Super Jet I have all the stuff you will need to refoam including foam and West Sysem glass. I have now re-foamed my boat twice and it sucks.

that would be bad ass to see you pull the first BR while riding the hood :biggthumpup: Think about it, hood ride up a wave and crank the bars just over the crest........talk about the ultimate ball buster :biggthumpup: If you held on you would probably get mad rotation.
