A Broke Knee

Methinks my knee is broke. It's been paining me for almost two solid months. I know I had repeatedly bruised the inside area, but the bruises have healed. I know the Lyme D brought on horrific arthritis, but I've been medicated for weeks now. The pain is different, a constant, sharp ache.
Used to be I could find positions where it didn't hurt...not today. Motrin doesn't touch it. I haven't been able to kneel on it at all, without serious pain for lo these two months. I'm pretty sure that something within that complex compartment, located behind my patella/ kneecap is broke to the point that it won't heal on its own....or it'd be better by now.
Well, I think it's time to talk to my doctor and get a referral to the bone doctor. I'm to the point where I just might take some heavier duty meds because it just hurts that bad...interfering with my daily activities and all.
Yeah, I think that is what I will have to do. I miss kneeling, gardening, sitting cross-legged, and walking pain free.
I'll keep ya posted
