This is a vast improvement on the shunt from pillar to post situation you've been in.
You've actually to some extent partially corrected the Knee issue, so good on you for that.
Hopefully your issues will get furtehr corrected over time. The scan could well show something up, so don't write that off as a triviality.

Re: Fat Around Button Area?
Cheers BM, appreciate it.
Ive been to PT in the past and they wasn't much help, i guess it's about time something different was tried, i don't feel it's anything serious, just some dysfunction and may need some manipulation around AC joint, something like that.
Yeah the MRI would be good to clear other causes out, i haven't heard from results from x-ray of knees and MRI of sacral and lumbar, but i assume they're fine or they would of said otherwise, may give them a ring.

Re: Fat Around Button Area?
Even if you haven't heard, it's good medical practice in eyes if you've been x-rayed, to be informed of the outcome(s), from such things, because to not say anything might look suspicious or perhaps suggest some kind of medical negligence, or something being covered up, or alternatively something serious that may warrent further investigation and they won't tell you until they work out how to proceed.
I doubt it's negligence on anyones part, why you haven't been informed, but it's still a viable scenario to at least be mindful of.
So if they haven't informed you what's what, chivvy them up, because it's not in your best interests, to be denied access to information regarding any medical outcome(s), resulting from tests or procedures untaken on you.
If there was any reason to delay disclosure, or possibly formulate a plan of action, should anything need to be taken further, I feel it is still courtesy for a medical proffessional, to inform you of any possible delay regards notifying you of medical results, so you are not left hanging and you don't formulate stressful or negative feelings about it all, that may not occur, if you're told A.S.A.P about the outcome(s) of medical scenarios you go through.
Hopefully there's nothing untoward or more worrying going on, but if you don't ask you don't get, so I say give the relevant people a nudge and enquire about the result(s) of things you have undergone recently.
It's your right to be told or request such information, in accordance with any doctor, patient relationship and the patients charter as well no doubt

Re: Fat Around Button Area?
Hi, sorry for the slow reply, have been on holiday and had a great time 
Not entirely glad to be back, but do need this problems sorted
You're right, i'll chase up the doctors tomorrow to get the results, of MRI and x-ray scan of knees.
It seems im only now having an MRI on right knee, this is point, it seems the doctors do not fucking listen at times, Ive lost count how many times Ive told them it's both knees but the right one i have trouble with fully flexing, either way, you would of thought if something would come up, it would come up on the right knee, so let's see, that's in just under a month..
Physiotherapy tomorrow morning, which is good, but im not too hopeful, mostly because of the outcomes from the past. Ive been refered there over 1-2 months ago, for SIJ pain, which will be a relief to get off back (get it?), but it hasn't been bothering me TOO much as late (touch wood) but i still feel it needs addressing. Again the PT will probably drag the appointment out with un-necessary assessment and history - although Ive been there a few months ago for this problem and tell me to come back within 2-3 weeks..
I bet she will give me stretches and some core strengthening exercises, which im probably already doing, i'll tell her this. I feel i NEED some mobilization on that area, and will request that if she refuses otherwise, as it's been almost one year of having this problem now, i feel it's not going away on it's own with self help.
Im beginning to think about these problems more, although it'll be good to hear what the people at the orthopaedic clinic think of problems (although i think im only referred for shoulders/neck), as they're higher up than PT's and i'll have to travel up London to get there.
Im thinking if the knee MRI comes back fine, then there is some dysfunction that has been going on for years causing this problem. Perhaps Hips aren't working properly, T spine, who knows, but again, im already addressing these issues with soft tissue work and flexibility/mobility drills regularly, doesn't seem to be doing too much. An annoying complaint i have now is that cervical spine pain hasn't been too bad lately, however earlier, i was on a quadruped position, doing a puzzle, for not even an hour or so, and just stuff like that, was enough to really aggravate neck and cause a painful dull ache, it's starting to puzzle me.
Im sure there's some tracking issues with knee too, if it's anything like patellafemora syndrome then a problem is that most runners that have it try to run too soon before it's fully healed and that's why it takes forever to heal and activities that produce pain should be avoided. This just isn't possible for me (the running part), but things like walking up stairs, i can't avoid, room is the loft room, and i must walk up at least 200 steps a day, it is half painful, but what can i do about that, nothing - yet. I guess deep down im just worried that im doing further damage as it's been years.
Did a load of walking on holiday, suprising amounts really considering the amount of heel pain Id been having. I borrowed a pair of cousins insoles which he had in a pair of running shoes, i guess these must of helped, although i have a few blisters and a verccua that has developed, i only got heel pain a handful of times, compared to the amount of steps and walking up hills i had been doing.
Just getting reall tired of all this, need to get back on track soon! Next year by the looks of things
Was eating out everynight, may of put on a pound or 2, if i have, im not entirely bothered, had a roast today too, id like to get back to running soon for this reason, but i can't see it being anytime soon, ahhh.

Re: Fat Around Button Area?
it, here goes..
Basically fed up with the same shit different day, and some of it is out of control
- No job = No money.
I can't work, at least not physically otherwise joints will ache and these problems get worse. Doing a puzzle for anywhere near an hour will make neck feel like it's about to snap. I can either continue to not work for what will likely be months on end with this SLOW treatment, or i can try and work through the pain and potentially make problems worse. I need some income. I have nothing right now, literally. And i have a holiday in a few weeks that i need to have money to spend otherwise it's pointless to go. Im on disability benefit, and it's worthless. It doesn't even cover rent. How can i afford to go out and enjoy teenage life without being able to pay for it. I don't want to be on benefits any longer than i have to, it's better than nothing, but i really don't like it. There has been some temporary work that has come up for brother, not sure what it's like, just simple packaging and that sort of thing i think it involves and it's ment to be "easy", depending on how hard it is, i might just go for it, it'll probably cause me pain anyway, but i have an orthopedic appointment on the 19th of october i believe, and neck/shoulders/elbows is probably the more disabling of not being able to do actual work, of course knees too if i have to bend down or anything like that. The money won't be great, but it'll be a whole lot better than what i am currently receiving and i need to, i need to save up for own car and insurance which is ridiculously in this fucking country, but i have to start somewhere.
- Don't want to live around this area/House.
I don't like this area, it's finished, a shithole, and has been for years, i really don't like living here. But i have to right now, unless i miracle win the lottery or get a high paying job to move out of this dump. It's not so much the house at all, but the area. The house is fine actually, but i don't like living here, i want some privacy, im getting to the age where i don't want to be living at home no more. Again, unless these problems get solved, doesn't look like moving out is anytime soon.
- No relationship - This is in relation to the "sluts" but i don't really want to get into that right now, long story short, girls.
- Too much time on hands.
This is because i am out of work and unable to even workout or do anything productive. I really don't like sitting about, thinking of posture and the amount of problems sitting around all the time causes, i just want to enjoy life.
And a big problem is i don't know where im headed in life. I wasted 3 years doing an electrical course, im not an electrician nor will i ever be, that occupation is just not for me. I like something to do with sports medicine, but the amount of time i have on hand reading into things like that, it's put me off, so back to square one.
Can't remember much else, but if i hear another dog barking/crying all day long, i think i'll go out and set the things on fire, i love dogs, but these irresponsible dog owners need to listen to their pets.
Scumbags around this area.
Finally, thursday was a good night, id like to keep that up. Even the 1k cals or so from alcohol, not great from a fitness perspective but i don't care, if i can workout and run 7 days a week then that counters it out a little, besides im young..

Re: Fat Around Button Area?
I know how that goes, darling. I've been searching for a job for over a year and a half now. Haven't gotten a SINGLE call about applications, or ANYTHING. I wish I would even get the CHANCE to work, regardless of how terrible the job would be because I have student loan payments along with groceries, school material expenses and I would REALLY like to be able to save up to go oon the trip that I am planning for June.Martin-Boy2 wrote:- No job = No money.
I know how that goes too, hence why I moved 700 miles away for school. I know you can't just decide to go to school, I've always known what I wanted to go to school for though, so going was just me deciding where.Martin-Boy2 wrote:- Don't want to live around this area/House.
Oh. Dear. God. Pm me and tell me this please, because I'm mildly offended at your comment for some bizarre reason and I'm also concerned for you, dear.Martin-Boy2 wrote:- No relationship - This is in relation to the "sluts" but i don't really want to get into that right now, long story short, girls.
I wish there was more I could say, but you didn't go terribly into depth on anything. I really do wish you the best, babe, and I hope you start getting things pushed forward for you soon. You deserve a lot more than what you're saddled with at this moment.
Re: Fat Around Button Area?
Instead of sports medicine, have you looked into doing a Gym instructors course, because you'll get funding an an under 24's government programme.

I can't get a job and i can't get nowhere without that. Tried phoning the place that brother got a job off of but they said they aren't taking no one else on, as i thought.
Besides i share a car so even if i got a job wouldn't be able to travel there as brother starts early, it's all fucking shit how can i pay for things that i NEED to without a job.

What is the status regarding previous question? Have you tried that avenue or not, because it might be an option for you .

Re: Fat Around Button Area?
Sorry about the slow reply, gym instructor, isn't that basically similar to a personal trainer, i don't think that'll be for me, working in a gym.
Anyway, i really don't know what to do now. These problems that i thought were getting sorted, well they aren't. Just going to talk about this Sacroiliac joint pain Ive been getting as Ive just had a physiotherapy appointment and im not going back there no more, im really fucking tired of going there and being given stretches to do, most of which i already do anyways.
I have had an MRI to rule out other causes, only thing was that i have reduced normal lumbar lordois. Although they say no significant abnormalities. The physio today gave me "stretches" to do again, which i am already doing and i just said, Ive been doing these stretches for months, the problem isn't getting any better, is there any chance you can do some mobilisation on that area..
Doesn't want to know, "im not going to manipulate your back, there's too many risks, i think it's more muscular and postural, if you want to see a chiropractor or go to your gp that could be another option". It's pretty much a cop out and she doesn't want to do anything, it's easy to say, just do these stretches. Ive had this pain for a year, it's not going away, i have done countless stretching, soft tissue work, mobility drills, you name it, i really think this needs to be dealt with "hands on". She has said a couple of times the pain is in the lumbar region, not SI joint, but i know there is pain in the SI joint, just because i don't have buttock pain. She made me lie on the floor, on , raise 1 leg up at a time, this aggrivated SI joint pain. Still, nothing.
The NHS treatment is useless, but im broke because im unable to work at the moment or do anything because of 99 problems, what do i do? Im certainly not going back there anymore because these so called "experts" are useless. They aren't helping at all. It's not muscular pain, and im sick of hearing that, really.
