Cold and MRI

I have a cold now. In Asia it is common for the person who is sick to wear a mask. So - when in Asia, do as the Asians do.

I continue to have some health problems though. My toe is healing fine but my knee which started to hurt and swell in June or July in Hawaii, is getting worse.

I had an MRI Monday and the tech said she thought she saw torn ligaments. I looked it up on the web - in the knee this may mean I have a torn ACL. If that is true then there are some big decisions to be made. I have a doctor's appointment a week from Thursday.

By the way. Since I am a member of the National Health System here through my work, my MRI cost me less than NT$500 or about $18 US including knee specialist visit and medication that I don't want to take.
