I am just curious because it doesn't feel like one to me. My dr. upon manipulation of the leg suspects an acl tear and a meniscus tear ( the meniscus tear I believe because there is pain to touch at the joint line) but the ACL tear I am dubious? Did anyone else have a tear that caused pain but didn't make your knee feel unstable? I don't have any feelings of instability. I have a lot of pain on the side, below, and behind my knee, and also some pain that radiates down my shin. But I don't feel like my knee is giving out. It has locked once or twice though. ( I have an MRI scheduled tomorrow, but just preparing myself for the worst) I should say I had extreme pain at the time of the injury, couldn't even roll over in bed as my knee would hurt so bad. I am able to walk on it, although i have a constant throbbing pain even at rest and tons of swelling about twice the size of my other knee. ( what happened was I fell backwards on my knee with my foot pointing towards the outside)

I have the above radio installed in my vehicle (It includes a cable for the Satellite connection). I am trying to get XM radio for this radio. However, all the website for Valor tells me is that I need part # XMD 1000 from Terk. I got the XMD 1000 and on the box, it says I need an XM direct adapter. I cannot find this information anywhere on the Valor website. Does anyone know exactly what I would need to get XM to my stereo for a Valor? Thanks

I have a pattern for a pair of angel earrings but the problem is I don't remember exactly how to do it. It has a 2 bead base row and you start by stringing 3 beads together then coming back through the first bead (it forms a pyramid with 2 beads on top and one bead on bottom) the trouble is, from here we are supposed to be able to add beads to the base row 2 beads at a time and I can't for the life of me remember how to do this. Does anybody know the name of this technique or how to do it? or even where I can find this technique online?

Hi, my computer got wrecked in a power surge during Hurricane Gustav. The deductible for insurance is $500 so it isn't worth running it through there. I am trying to find an inexpensive desktop computer that can replace the one we lost as my daughter uses the computer daily for homework. I know at Dell you can build your own, but really, it isn't that cheap. Any help would be great, thanks.

My daughter asked me for help with her math homework and I don't even understand what the question means. You don't have to give the answer but could someone point us in the right direction for finding the answer? This is the question: State whether the conjecture division of whole numbers is commutative is true or false. If false provide a counter example. Thanks ahead of time.

My daughter who is now 12 was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 8. She has been on meds (concerta) for quite a while. The meds seem to calm her down, yet do nothing whatsoever about her mood. She is negative all the time, complains constantly, is frequently bored, sleeps late and stays up late, often talks about killing herself, and is very hostile, argumentative, and irritable, not to mention takes any direction as a direct attack on her person, for example if we tell her to clean up her room, she starts complaining that she is a bad person and she is always getting yelIed at, often writing I want to die, or I want to kill myself. I am at my wit's end with her, I cannot stand anymore negativity, as a matter of fact I don't even want to be around her and I hate feeling that way about my own child! But she makes it so hard to love her. Anyways, my question is could she have been misdiagnosed? I really think she has depression. I know you aren't doctors, just looking for input

I have a VX9800. I have downloaded bitpim and I am able to make ringtones through this process. The problem is I don't want the whole song for a ringtone I would like only part. Does anyone know of anysoftware I can either download or purchase that will allow me to shorten the MP3 clip? I would prefer a free downloadable software, but hey, beggers can't be choosers. Thanks

Can you set MP3's as ringtones with this phone? Or do you have to have a special program to do it? Thanks

If you change phones with verizon wireless, do your ringback tones that you have for each person remain, or are those downloaded to the old phone? I know the ringers will be gone but just wondering about the songs they hear when they call me. Thanks

HI I have fabric seats, and I have learned my lesson, do NOT get a new car if you have kids. The kids have wreaked havoc on the fabric in my backseats. I am looking for a good fabric cleaner that will get out mud and food stains. ( I do not let them eat in the car usually, but occasionally they sneak something with them. ) anyways, could someone please help? Thanks

I am wondering what a credit counselor can do. I am looking for someone who can help me work with my creditors so I can get a payment plan together because I got behind in my payments and now they keep calling me. I want to be able to get back on my feet without resorting to bankruptcy. Thanks for your help.

recent events have left my husband and I with little options. I think we are going to have to file for bankruptcy and I am leaning towards chapter 7. My questions are as follows: I have a 2005 Chevy Malibu on which I still owe about $15,000. I would like to keep this car and continue to make payments. Is that possible? Also, we have a house and a travel trailer, my husband is currently using that travel trailer to stay in while he works out of state, can we keep that? and last but not least, can I file bankruptcy on just my debts or do we have to file as a couple? Thank you for your answers.

Recently a dentist recommended that my friend get dentures. The dentist recommended a color and they ended up looking yellow. She was very upset and complained to the dentist that she did not like the color. The dentist told her she could fix them but if they went whiter they wouldn't look natural. Now she is worried about getting them whiter cause she doesn't want them to look bad, but she really hates the yellow coloring she has. ( BTW she doesn't smoke) I told her that I thnk with everyone getting teeth whitening nowadays she could just pass them off as being whitened. What do you all think?

Do you think a smoky eye is too much for the workday? Or is this something that should be done only in the evening? Thanks

I got a perm in November and it sort of dried my hair out. Thing is I want to go get my color touched up now and I am wondering how I can get it colored while preventing my hair from drying out further. Any suggestions?

My 5 year old is constantly whining. Whining cause he wants something, whining that his sister said something to him, just whining about everythingI have tried the say it to me in a normal voice thing or I won't listen and it doesn't seem to help. I don't give in to him when he whines for things. But I am at my wits end and ready to pull my hair out because that constant whining. Does anyone have any suggestions to get him to stop. I will be eternally grateful for the person who gives me something that works. Thanks in advance.

Does anyone know anything about personal karoake machines? I am looking for a good one. I would like one of those ones that can download karaoke music onto the machine.

I have a Verizon wireless Pink Ravr V3C and I have a bluetooth headset, not sure of the brand for the bluetooth. I previously used the bluetooth with another phone so I know it works but I cannot get the Ravr to even find the bluetooth headset. Is there a way to do this on the phone? What I have been doing is going to connections on my phone, then bluetooth, then handsfree then search for devices, all the while I am doing this, I have my headset turned on and right next to my phone. Is there another way of doing this so that the phone finds it? Thanks
