Both of my knees are shot, and I've had surgery on my left knee 3 times.. I've been working on oil rigs for the better part of 15 years now. It's taken it's toll on my body.
The quacks always told me regular dose of Ibuprophen, but I dont like to take things all the time. Your body can get dependent on them. Usually when the bother my its either 4 Tylenol or IB. Some day Im gonna make an appt. and tell Im not leaving until they figure out and fix my knees. Its nothing for me to be walking and one of my knees give out for no reason. My legs are strong as all get out, between riding bikes as a kid, horses until about 5 years ago and quads the muscles have stayed strong.
Im only 32!!!! LOL Used to be you were good til about 50!!!
Pleasure horses, breaking them was always interesting. One stud was a pain and decided I need off of him. Needless to say I bet I looked funny flying thru the air!!! Always learned if somethings happening make sure you fly clear, even in a quad accident. The things we ride can kill or seriously injury!
Ive always done some crazier ****, I think now you think things thru a little more. When I was younger I didnt think and usually ended up broke or bloody!!! Ive now figure out that a little more planning I dont get hurt as often. Which is a miracle sometimes like when I demo derby or run a gauntlet race!!! I have a pic of a car that I took into the side of a Town Car in a race at about 50mph deliberately.
im preety sure most peoples problems are fixed by those!
Well I'm only 33.. I'm in pretty good shape for a beat up rigger to.
Thats right.. :nanner:
Well Alex, you could only hope you look like us 15 years from now!!
