Dear Memory,
As promised semalam MRI result was out. Nervous juga menantikan result tu...
There are four ligaments that connect and hinge the upper bone (Femur) and lower bone (Tibia) at our leg. (Ahh Biologi tingkatan 5 sangatt)
1. Medial Collateral Ligament (MCL)
2. Lateral Collateral Ligament (LCL)
3. Posterior Cruciate Ligament (PCL)
4. Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL)
*please refer at the diagram
Doctor carefully explained that two my of meniscus were ok (MCL and LCL are two ligaments at the side of Femur and Tibia)
Then he moved on to posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), everything was good and sound until the last part..
"However, when we look at the MRI image of the ACL....(jantung dah berdegup kencang dah).. there are some distortions at the fibers of its tibial attachments, where the MRI image at that part is not as dark/black and solid as it is supposed to be.. there were distortions, which could possibly signaled that there are partial tears at the ligament.."
Ah sudah...

Conclusion of the MRI |
Then the doctor said, normally for partial tear we have options whether to do the operation/surgery or not. If it is a minor one, it could heal by itself but if it worsen, surgery has to be made. Therefore, before making any clinical judgement, the doctor asked me to rest for 4 weeks before coming again for clinical judgement to be made.
Any outcome after 4 weeks will determine whether I have to do the surgery or not.
Dan aku berdoa sangat-sangat Kau jauhkanlah aku daripada segala surgery bagai ini, sebab kalau dah surgery of course ability dah bukan like manusia normal, pasti ada side effect. ahh sedihnyaa T_T
Namun, aku masih bersyukur sebab dia bukan full tear, which means memang confirm confirm kena surgery.
Adeh, so cancel la segala tournament futsal yang aku dah sign up for untuk sebulan ni. Doctor cakap the tear could be worst kalau aku lasak sangat. T__T
Tapi nak main badminton boleh kan? kan? tak pakai kaki sangat.
So esok aku akan teruskan aktiviti badminton weekly aku, tapi dengan lebih berhati-hati sikit kot untuk lutut kanan aku ni. Hmm
p/s: kalau mak tau ni habis ni...
p/s: harapnya sharing pasal ilmu biologi ni bermanfaat pada yg membaca..sbg panduan di masa depan
