Very much so. Steve found out something interesting about mosquitoes
the other day--they tend to prefer people with type O blood over
others. His is O; he gets eaten alive. Mine is B and they ignore me,
for the most part. Guess O tastes better. (G)
Not fun. I had my last therapy session today but will continue with
home exercises. He said that in time, this will become my "good" knee.

I had not heard that. I had heard that they are attracted to people
who drink beer -- which leaves the two of you safe from that score. I once mentioned it as a possible reason they are attracted to Michael.

Good news. I have also been going to PT, balance problems leading to
a fall a few months back. Fortunately the fall did nothing more than
a
skinned elbow, but was scary enough that my primary doc sent me to PT.

PT can be a very useful thing to build up muscles and strengthen
ligaments and all that are needed for balance... especially ones you didn't realize were involved.... :) Are you seeing much progress...?

They keep telling me that there are multiple (three?) things
contributing. Leg muscles, ear and visual. The last one is clearly demonstrated to me by excercises where they have me shut my eyes,
while doing something that is already taxing on the balance ability.
It only takes about 15 seconds before I start seriously leaning to the point of needing to grab onto the bars that are there for just that possibility.
