Running 1:00:00 [3] 6.0 mi (10:00 / mi)
post appointment: Queens drive, Whinny, Arthurs Seat and Salisbury crags. Icy.
Note
Mr McKinley. Finally.
I guess big noise consultants get paid a lot more than juniors. McKinley was sharp, clear and to the point. With the pictures (why the others wouldn't show me is a mystery). L medial gastroc compartment is about 30% the size of R medial gastroc compartment. Probably less if you ask what's in there. Eek!
Soleus down a bit, other muscles similiar. All that specific work of FHL and TibPost was a waste of time.
Disk bulging out between L5/S1 on left side, which is where the main nerves to medial gastroc come out (says McKinley, google says S1/S2). Everything consistent with trapped nerve there.
Pretty confident in diagnosis now. Treatment is another matter.
Options - surgery or injections, no guarantee either will work. Physio if anything is firing.
