If you have a few spare minutes, look up Compartment syndrome in regards to that leg. Having a replacement knee increases the risks of Bad Things happening.

I'm with these guy Bill. Ask Ray about Dean. He want surfing offroad west of Espanola a few years back, spent a week in the hospital before he was released. A few *MONTHS* later he was rushed to the hospital because of a clot was lodged just a little bit from he lungs. Almost didn't make it.
You know, just because you got it looked at by some of the finest 'free' physicians in the world doesn't make the diagnosis any better.

Yeah, it's a concrete corn cob. So?
Jeebus, Bill. That leg is pretty gnarly.

I agree with the others Bill.
Your leg looks like Rigger Mortis has moved in. If you was a horse, they'd put you down.

I'll bring a hacksaw and tin snips to Red Lodge. If needed we can have surgical tech day.

Most of the discoloration was from a few years back when I broke that leg in three places dirt biking. I have a compression stocking and have been using it and keeping the leg elevated at night.
The swelling is starting to subside slowly and I also ice it every night. I appreciate the concern and already have an appointment with my own doctor when I get back.

If your leg has been looking like that for a long time, well... you might want to get a second opinion.
Now I understand why all of our Upstate NY MRI centers are so busy with Canucks paying cash ($$$).

No wonder nobody can afford your healthcare. You have one little boo boo and you ******* need to run around to twenty different specialists. Just put a dress on and be done with it wimp. For crying out loud man up!!!

Put a dress on it? Now you're entering a very different area of discussion.

A dress will not make Billy Fitz acceptable

I see that your leg had been injured during your so called "invasion". What happened? Some little kid kick you in the shins?
Atleast you haven't wimped out and called a doctor...I mean they have to be effen busy with people putting their eye out just thinking about the upcoming Canada Day.
Cheers, have a great trip. Avoid that little kid on yer way back to Canader.

This will probably get this thread locked down but some people on this thread should not post things they know nothing about. You have been lied to by your politians about the Canadian medical system. It's not perfect, no system is but it is not the nightmare some would have you believe. Now back to the ride report.

Day 4 Grangeville to Dillon
Another awesome day in the Wild West. Just a couple of pics to hold you over because I am working on uploading a video.
We spent a little bit of extra time on the Montana / Idaho border playing hooligan. Jeff loaned me his pics of Ray & I at play...
I'm tired after today and need to rest up for tomorrow. I will try to get caught up later....
