Notapro's request for pix made me realize I should have posted in this thread., instead of commandeering the "Where are you going in 2023?" thread.
Will try to post pix of the incisions when they remove the bandages.
So, played Keriakes and Freeman Lake, and the first 4 holes of Muldraugh. #5 nearly killed me.
Currently in my local Emergency room awaiting X-rays, catscan, and hopefully MRI.
Was walking down a steep hill after teeing off, and the muddy ground gave way and my left knee buckled under me, and as I was going down, my right knee buckled. Pretty sure both knees have extensive connective tissue damage.
I can't recall feeling pain like that. Eventually a 30's 'ish discer named Nicky came by and carried my bag back to his car, cameback and helped me back, too.
Cant walk on my own at this point (left quad basically not working, right is too painful), but once I got in the car, I was actually able to drive without discomfort.
Thank God I no longer own a manual trans.
Stopped a several drive through getting 3 large cups of ice several times to ice my knees as I drove. (Had a gallon ziploc back I'd filled with snacks).
Longest 400 miles of my life.
Hope I don't need surgery (it felt/feels that bad when I try to stand), but I'm already trying to laugh about it.
If I'd look back in a year and laugh, why wait?
