Ten days ago I hurt my knee stepping down from a lift that was 18inch high, it's my job and I do it multiple times each day. This time however as I was straightening my leg ready to put my foot on the ground I heard a loud popping noise then the pain started. After 5hrs in emergency department I was sent home, told to rest, do gentle exercises and return in 10 days, back I went today and got checked by a doctor, I was sent for x-ray and ultrasound and eventually they told me I have completely ruptured the Quadriceps tendon that links the thigh muscles to the kneecap. I'm being moved to a hospital closer to home and Tuesday or Wednesday they will be performing emergency surgery to try reconnect the tendon to my knee. I may be off SG for a few days until I'm back home and properly resting, I'm going to miss all you beautiful ladies and gentlemen.
