No one will ever know how I looked when I fell as I was all by my lonesome. Its one of the only places in the casino without cameras. I will say my arse is sore, but I thank the powers that be for alot of padding back there LOL.

Alice they said about a week, but I found that keeping my knee immobilized was making fluid build up on it really bad. I've had surgery on it twice and know my knee pretty well, so I took the knee brace off, but am still using the ankle brace.

Yea be careful with that knee- Mine was pretty banged up when I was a wee lad (pretty bad snowmobile accident- that was never told to anyone- hmm dummy me) I know what that fluid build up can do to ya- Make sure you put it up for a couple minutes after work- let that knee relax! Oh and do you ice it down or heat it up? I tried icing (doctor recommended) and the freakin thing locks, swells up, and becomes pretty worthless- Heat on the other hand lossens everything up and really takes away that soreness- Seems to help a bit with the swelling too!

I'll bring in some Vitamins for you tomorrow, MSM is great stuff! Good thing you fell in the room or I would post some pics . I twisted my back tonight by having the anti static mat slide out from under me, I have no idea how I didn't fall on my head. Peace, SSSSpaceman SSSpliff
