:sad: Tore my knee up at work yesterday. Helped a guy load up some heavy roles of Electrical service wire and my knee just gave out and popped. Had a MRI done yesterday and the doctor said I have a torn MCL, Meniscus and maybe some nerve damage. Just my luck it's my right knee the one I have already had 2 ACL surgeries on in the past.

That's what I was about to say. You have to look at the silver lining.

I would never say that because as a Marine I feel it's my duty to be there and I worry about my team if they go and I'm not able to lead them into battle. If something was to happen to one of them I would feel it would be my fault because I got hurt at work and should of been smart and waited for a fork lift.
Sorry to hear the Burnet. Rest well and heal up.

Ouch. I had some nerve damage in my thumb that took several years to heal, after I broke my arm/hand. Here's to a speedy recovery.
