Gradient Keeper Posted January 5, 2020 Report Share Posted January 5, 2020 Hope it keeps healing well! My brain surgery went smooth but my head still hurts sometimes so I'm thinking good thoughts for you.Wow man. I didn't know you had brain surgery, or I had forgot if you've mentioned here in the forum. That "takes the cake" over anything I'm dealing with. I'm glad it went smoothy bud and will also think good thoughts for you. Dude. What is wrong with your knee. Sounds like it’s ruining your life. Can you get a replacement?A lot. It has been an ongoing issue. I had my first knee injury when I was 10. It worsened 7th grade. It kind of fluctuated and I did okay with it for a good many years. I had my first surgery in 1994 11 pins were put in. In 1996 shredded the cartilage while on a hike. It improved and it wasn't a problem for awhile. I did have an issue with it hyperextending sometimes or buckling on me. 2014 tore my meniscus. Had surgery 2015. Tore the cartilage 2015. Surgery 2016. 2017 went okay avoided surgery. Late 2017 had a complex meniscus tear and bone damage, so had surgery in 2018. 2019 went pretty good, but like I always do I overdid it hiking and fishing all Spring, Summer, and early Fall. 5 surgeries in, so I'm really close to the replacement. It has hyperextended 7-8 times the past 2 months and what I mean by that is when I take a step my knee will suddenly straighten and just as abruptly cave in collapsing afterward. The past 35 years I've had Osgood-Schlatter Disease, Patellofemoral Syndrome, and Osteochondritis. I don't know if it's ruining my life. My Vertigo sure did, but that has steadily improved the past 5-7 years to where I am no longer bedridden. It could always be worse and when my Father battled ALS that gave me a very clear and deeper perspective. Nothing I have to deal with holds a candle to that. Praying for you and djAppreciate that. My mom recently had total knee replacement couple weeks ago and in the process of recovering. Even so, it seems like she is so much better than before. It’s probably worth it.Yeah I've heard the past 5-10 years knee replacement surgeries have improved and it seems more than half of the patients are benefiting from it tremendously. I'm glad your Mom is doing better. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerWoodsLibido Posted January 5, 2020 Report Share Posted January 5, 2020 Not totally sure how this EMCWF WMO model differs from the operational, but it looks nice for us! Better than it's 00z run last night for next weekend. Bridges the GOA and AK/Arctic ridges much better. It also looks pretty nice at D10! So close to bridging the SE ridge too. That would be 1969-status.

Glad to hear you're doing better with that. Debilitating crap like that is just no fun. Hoping your knee issues also continue to improve. It's funny how this community spends literally decades together and accumulates a pretty good deal of knowledge on the issues and personalities of other posters and in most cases without ever meeting or seeing the others.

Gradient Keeper Posted January 5, 2020 Report Share Posted January 5, 2020 OK, very stupid question-- heights lowering (presumably over Alaska) is a good thing, correct?Heights were lowering more quickly over BC, Washington.

Perturbed Member Posted January 5, 2020 Report Share Posted January 5, 2020 OK, very stupid question-- heights lowering (presumably over Alaska) is a good thing, correct? You want heights building over Alaska. Higher heights = ridging/high pressure. You want the ridge to dislodge the cold air over there and send it south to us. Heights over the PNW will drop as that happens, indicating the presence of colder air over us. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
