I had to go back to the knee doc yesterday. One time I went to see him and came out a total wreck but since he has good machines there momma convinced me that is where we needed to go. When the doc came in there was a little bit of a hello and how do you do but then he and this other lady wrestled me to the ground and started groping me all over. Holy cow! If you are gonna do that kind of thing I prefer if you buy me dinner first sheesh!
Then they flipped me over and prodded more and that side did not bother me so much. Then I got whisked off to the private room for a photo shoot. Usually I go in there and get all sleepy and come out all loopy, but this time I was awake through the photoshoot. I still won't tell momma what happened in there though.
Anyway, the doc said he thought I got something called a 'groin pull' which is a huge relief if that is right. The photos he took were just to check if everything else was ok and to see if my arthritis was worse which would have suggested it was some problem with my knee afterall. Here are the photos of my knee from my past 4 photoshoots for anyone who wants to see (you can bigify).
Doc says my bone is all healed up from when he broke it before. My arthritis might look a little bit worse but he said nothing too bad. Anyways, I am supposed to not do any crazy cracker dog dances for awhile and no park trips until I am all better. Last night I wiped out and did the splits when momma came home so I guess I see his point. That really hurt! Problem is I tend to forget that when momma comes home or when she has my supper bowl in her hand. Sorry no cute pics. Momma is busy busy busy but wanted to update my pals who were nice enough to be worried about me!


Moose, although we hate that your not feeling your best, we are glad it's only a groin pull! Hope you're feeling great in no time at all!
ReplyDeleteStumpy and I are on vacation and our internet access is sketchy at best. We'll catch up with you when we can!
Glad it seems like nothing serious. Get well soon!!

That is a big relief, but now comes the challenge of keeping you from going cracker lab and pulling things even more. Yikes. I know how difficult that can be. Good luck, Moose (and Moose mom).

Hey Moose! Mom loved those leggy bone photos, stared at them for ages. She said it was really cool to watch your bones heal. Anyways, we just wanted to say hi and hope you feel all better soon!

Wow. Um. Mom has a wrist that sort of looks like that (well, her screws are pointing in a bunch of different directions), and Dad's neck looks sort of like that (he broke his neck, got a big plate stuck there to keep his head on, and it mostly works, except that he literally has one screw loose!). I glad to hear that you are mostly okay, and will be back to your usual, ah, relaxed self!
