Again?!...Are You Kidding Me...

Soooooo...Doug did something to his knee. Again. In jiu jitsu. He's at the doctor's office as we speak...had an x-ray and is waiting for an MRI. I am keeping my fingers crossed it is nothing too serious...and I know he is REALLY hoping it isn't serious since Worlds are in a month and he was planning on competing.

Fingers crossed...waiting anxiously.

**Status Update: According to the MRI results, Doug has a "partial tear of the fibular collateral ligament and distal biceps femoris with edema in the adjacent soft tissue, posterolateral corner injury is suspected. Additionally strain of the popliteus muscle is also seen."**

So - some partial tears, tissue swelling, and muscle strain...that puts him out of jiu jitsu for a minimum of six weeks. Needless to say, he's not a happy camper right now.
