[QUOTE="splozi, post: 915014"] I have never had any problems with my knees. The closest thing I have ever experienced was in High School weightlifting, when we did laps around the track. And it wasn't this bad. Let's just say, I am not a very fit person. I've lost about thirty pounds since I began working in preload... less than four months ago - so things are improving. Obviously my knees were not used to this sort of stress. This likely had a lot to do with it. I expected soreness; I can deal with that... and I DID deal with it just from preload. But in my opinion, this knee pain was pretty severe. At home, where I was not taking Alieve, I had to brace myself against something to walk around the house. I had difficulty getting up off of a couch. I could not crouch or bend my knees while supporting my body. If I had to get down on the floor to do something, I would need assistance getting back up. It was a pretty miserable experience, to say the least. Eventually I had to stop taking Alieve because it was hurting my stomach, possibly causing internal inflammation. My limping was pretty obvious. I could not walk very quickly, and went up and down steps very slowly. I never said anything about it to anyone but my driver, and it took about a week for my supervisor to ask me what happened. Anyway, it's better now. I don't have those pains anymore. I mostly "walk at a brisk pace" while helping to prevent it from happening again, but sometimes I'll semi-run, and it seems to be ok. Whatever it was in my knees is probably getting stronger from all of this. As far as WC goes... I would only consider that an option if this was a more long-term issue. [U]EDIT[/U]: Oh, and jumping out of the truck... yeah, I did that in the beginning. My original driver didn't point out the handle to me until the third day. It was too late by then, the "damage" had been done. [/QUOTE]
