Please keep your fingers crossed!! (UPDATE!)
I made an appointment to see an orthopedist tomorrow. I haven't run in over a week now because of my knee.
Keep your fingers crossed its nothing serious and I can get back to running soon (It's driving me crazy not running!!)
UPDATE:
GOOD NEWS!! There is nothing seriously wrong with my knee. The doctor thinks I just overworked it. He wants me to take some time off from running (at least another 2 weeks). On the bright side, I can still do my crosstraining.

Re: Please keep your fingers crossed!!
fingers crossed for you! I've been to the doctor for my knee, shin and hip and all three times I just needed to rest and ice. I had to take about 3-4 weeks off each time and it drove me crazy too. but I recovered fully each time and I'm sure you will too!

don't worry! I felt the same way...it almost depresses you in a way and you have thoughts like "I'm never gonna be able to run again!"
But it does get better, and the time passes and you pick up where you left off. Just listen to what the doctor says. I've had injuries where I take a week off, then try to run and the pain is still there. Gave it another week, tried again, still pain. I've actually limped and cried as I walked home thinking the pain would never go away. But every time I've taken 3- 4 weeks off, I've healed every time...and got back to it!

Re: Please keep your fingers crossed!! (UPDATE!)
That's great news!! The same thing happened with my knee last year too. In a few weeks, you'll be good as new YAYYY!
Oh yeah I just remembered...my doctor recommended that I strengthen my quads more to help strengthen the knee. So I did that for the four weeks that I took off by doing a lot of squats and lunges...I think that really helped me too.

Thanks! I'm so happy its nothing too harsh.
You know its strange...alot of runners recommended squats and lunges. When I asked the doctor about it today he advised me NOT to because it could irritate my knee more. Is that weird?
