So, I saw the doctor. He informed me that the meniscus was torn, after which I commented that I had already been given that information and I was there to find out what is next.He seemed a bit confused by this, so I elaborated “I KNOW THE MENISCUS IS TORN, WHAT IS THE TREATMENT?????”
He explained that this was not his area of expertise, and as a family practitioner he would only be able to refer me to specialists to determine what is next. After I was done banging my head against the wall, he gave me a referral to Orthopedics and Physical Therapy. He let me know that the folks over in Orthopedics would make the determination as to whether or not I needed physical therapy only, or also need surgery.
So, now I wait some more. Isn’t this fun?
