Keystone State Thread

Last 5 were chevy express. Acura mdx 2 of them. Nissan juke and a freightliner

 

The glass shop is in the hood so no one has nice cars. I swear I've done like 10 Acura mdx within the past week. All the cars we do is raggedy af. Alot of roofers in the area also so lots of chevy express and ford econolines.

 

Good morning Pennsylvania and surrounding areas

 

At least they weren't MK7 (2015+) VW GTI's

I remember people were getting windshields in those and the installers basically destroyed the car doing so

 

Good morning PA.

 

Good morning all. Supposed to get up above 60 today. Might have to take the long way home....

 

Good morning. Results from my MRI say:

Impression
1. Medial meniscus tear.
2. Full-thickness cartilage fissure in the medial patellar facet.
3. Reactive marrow edema in the peripheral medial compartment with
possible associated partial-thickness cartilage loss.
The images and findings of this examination were reviewed and approved by
the Staff Radiologist.

EXTRA-ARTICULAR: Trace Baker's cyst.

Where's my gimpy knee people's? So from your experiences is it looking like just a 3 hole orthoscopic fix or full on zipper scar surgery?
Still waiting for a call back from the doctor. I'll try calling his office again today. Looking at this brace or one like it to hold me over and support my knee. I have the smaller braces for knees but they're too tightly compressing.

 

They aren't hard to do. Guess installers weren't skilled. Vw just have really small pinch welds.

 

My whole right leg is held together with titanium and titanium screws.
But man I'm feeling for you doesn't sound fun.

It twas a Long day for me today. Left my house at 7am just pulled into my driveway 5mins ago. Very busy day at the shop. Last job of the day was in longhorne pa. On a mack gasket windshield. New gasket means it doest stretch all that well. Pain in the ass.

 

Dude...

 

All the best to ya rebel, by the time they are done you'll be good as new !
Remember the 6 million dollar man ?

 

Going to see the doctor tomorrow at 9:30am so we shall see.

 

When they thought it was my meniscus… that’s the close to what I had. It.. helped… but I also went through 6 braces before I got the right diagnosis and brace. That one you posted is probably the best of all I had. (Until my current one)

 

Good morning PA. Happy hump day.

 

Good morning Pennsylvania and surrounding areas

 

Morning Pennsylvania

 

Good morning all.

Took me an hour to ride home from work yesterday. No traffic or anything like that, just enjoying that first 70 degree day.

 

What is the current brace you use? There's so many online. I found that one in Target.
