More knee fun

Today I finally had my xray on my knee. I didn't go initially, because the doctor didn't seem very concerned about my injury, and it seemed like he wrote the xray prescription as an afterthought, and it started to feel better anyway. However, yesterday after all the moving of kitchen furniture, it really started to hurt again. I went to the hospital to get the xray done, just like the prescription said to, and paperwork was really complicated for just a simple xray. Then I had to twist my knee to both sides for the xray machine, which hurt quite a bit.

Now, I'm just really uncomfortable. It hurts to bend it at a 90 degree angle and step up or down, and the knee cap has a funny bump on the top...sort of like it's in the wrong place, but not really. It feels really different from the right kneecap, and it's very painful to the touch. They said they'd get back to me a day with the results, but I'm thinking that will probably be Monday since I got it done on Friday. I'll have to dig out my brace tonight so I can get up and down the stairs for teaching tomorrow.
