Two weeks ago I was walking out with my pop up it had been raining for to days.
I had the 28 pound blind and my pack back with say 15 pounds of stuff in it on my back. I slipped coming up a shallow creek bed now this thing is like 8 inchs deep and 2 feet wide. When i did i popped my bad knee and high extended it again. I almost went down but the tree next to me helped me stop my self.

After getting knee surgery in Jan of 08 i have took great care in making sure not to hurt it. I have notice some of the a pain coming back but not to much.

Well after the hunt it has gotten worst. Today after 5 or 8 hikes up the stairs standing around and sitting on the floor to fix my sink pipe. IT was killing me. I went to sleep for a few hours and woke up to real bad pain.

My first thought is i broke more cartilage in the same knee. It is not as bad as before but getting there. I thought about going to the doctor but i know what he will say. Lets get another MRI then lets do another surgery.
But not sure i want to or should. I mean i am 430 pounds 6'5 just how much better is it going to get. Got to admit it scares me alot. My thoughts are wait till i drop another 50 or 60 pounds. Then think about the surgery. Odd thing when i had surgery i lost 10 pounds in a month i was laid up. Might have been because i had my food fixed for me and i ate less.

What would you do. I worry it i wait even drop 50 pounds then this summer or fall i have to get it done it will hurt me come hunting season.
It took me 3 1/2 weeks to get off crutch's the first time. 2 more months before i was able to really move good. What should i do.
