I finally got the duster in the shop

I feel your pain John. Been getting my knees, mostly the right one, drained and cortisone injected for several months now. They are finally starting to feel pretty good but my orthopedist says it's a matter of time before I'll need a joint replacement in my right knee due to arthritis and joint degeneration. Going to hold off on that for as long as possible.

don’t hold off.
I waited WAY longer to get my hip done than I should have, and am paying for it.
my hip and back became fused together from so much scar tissue, so when they were in there they had to cut nerves. The doctor had hoped they would regenerate, but they haven’t, so loss of core strength and back pain are the results.
stand long or walk very far is painful, meanwhile the hip feels great…grrrr.
Anyhow, the other day I made a promise I am not racing again until the bathroom scales start with a 2xx.
So hopefully that is a motivation to help myself out
