I finally went to my doctor the other day after almost a year of elbow pain. She touched it and was like "yep you've got golfers elbow." Pretty funny because I HATE GOLF lol. Anyway I took a break from some exercise because the darn thing hurts like a mother (and is on my dominant hand...yaaay[emoji58])

Anyway my arms are starting to look like literal bat arms (all skinny and crap.) Anyone got any suggestions? I'm going to physical therapy for it soon but from my understanding, these things take a long time to heal [emoji53]

RNY Dec 18, 2017!

Dealing with my knees right now - I think I may have a posterior torn meniscus, but whatever it is won't be diagnosed for a couple of weeks. I now have an issue with my right knee due to a fall.

What's ironic is I never had any knee pain or issues until after losing 140 lbs!

My trainer's recommendation is to, as much as possible, distinguish the movements that trigger inflammation/pain and not do those movements.

Anything that fully extends my legs causes about 5 days of reduced mobility/pain/inflammation, so I don't do calf raises, for example. Twisting also aggravates it. Sometimes lunges do as well. Interestingly enough, squats don't (stable, no twisting). Leg presses are OK at lower weights.

Until I get seen by my PCP and then up the referral chain, that's how I'm dealing with it.
