It’s soooo hot (65F plus humid). I’m the sweatiest MFer alive.

That can be a hard conversation. Hopefully your surgeon is taking the time to explain options to you and help make a decision.

I was summoned… I’m curious why you feel the “need” to schedule a surgery? Rare to have a good candidate for TKR AND arthroscopy. Moderate OA doesn’t do well with a scope. Sometimes pts are in the middle zone (too bad for scope, not enough for TKR) and surgery isn’t likely to meet goals. 1/2

I guess I’ll have to go down to 4 teaspoons of toothpaste just to be safe.

How much toothpaste can I swallow before surgery?

Tuned up our skis and now enjoying Snowbird.

Age and activity level. A frail elderly person, nursing home patient, etc. is very unlikely to get surgery in my practice. Good evidence there is no meaningful benefit in that population regardless of displacement.

The past 2 days have been some of the best days skiing I’ve ever had. Deep powder with my boys. Jumping off rocks, bumps, and anything else. Fresh tracks all day. Love it.

Same. I want bones and dogs. And my dog, Bones.

I think we are deluding ourselves. They wont be able to solve any of these 1 step age 4+ puzzles.

This is the kind of outside the box thinking PRP needs right now.

You’re gonna do great! It’s the best, most reliable surgery in orthopedics. Good luck.

It is not unusual at all for patients to comment on feeling the cold in their implants.

My PA and I bombed down this untouched run 10 times today. He’s walking uphill to gather his ski after a high speed/soft landing crash.

Very General Orthopaedist @generalortho.bsky.social · 18/01/2025

It was a low speed fall. No injuries to me at all.

Had a good day at big sky until I skied over a rock field sneakily covered with 4 inches of snow, damaged my ski, broke my boot, somehow hucked my ski pole off a cliff…and ripped my pants. Can’t win em all! I’m all good for tomorrow.

157K the past 6 days and a slightly tweaked MCL makes today a good rest/travel day. I’ll be back crushing tomorrow in Big Sky. ⛷️ 🎉

Nice! Those are long runs. We had a trip planning to Chamonix and Zermatt 2 years ago but canceled due to no snow. We will make it there eventually.

Great. Now I can’t use IV red dye #3 to get rid of toxins. What are they gonna come after next, Thalidomide for morning sickness?

Look at my little tiny lady skiing the Rendezvous bowl. She gets better all the time.

I usually don’t eat much for lunch. Yesterday I had 2 pocket granola bars while riding the lift.

I’m a Lego and can straight up murder anyone and just change my modular head and they’ll never find me.

Even when I was only 7’10” I had abnormally large hands.

Tight end…bc I was a good pass catcher. I wasn’t a good blocker.

They exist, but only come in white as far as I know.

It’s incredibly gross. I don’t recall us having this conversation when LA, AL, GA, SC, NC, FL, and TX are hit by devastating hurricanes. Ignoring the fact that those states, unlike CA, receive more federal funding than they generate.

I skied a lot again. One more day in Jackson then off to Big Sky for “CME.”

I usually don’t lunch just bring bars or a pocket sandwich but I was hungry! Unfortunately I left lunch hungry.
