Default Minor (hopefully) purrs needed

I hurt my knee a few weeks ago. I'm not really certain how, but it's
gotten worse and I've finally gone to the doctor. X-rays didn't show
anything wrong with the bones, but there may be some tears in the
meniscus. So I'm going for an MRI today and a follow-up with the doctor
on Thursday to evaluate.
Could I get a few purrs that this is nothing serious? And if I can be
greedy, that I may be able to play in my tennis tournament this weekend?
It's the very first tournament I enter and I'm very excited about it.
Tom is threatening to call the doctor himself and tell him to forbid me
from playing tennis. I know I need to be careful, but I'm hoping a knee
brace and taking it easy will be sufficient.

Purrs on the way. I hope if you do play tennis it doesn't cause further
damage.

First purrs for your knee to be just a minor injury. But even if worse
comes to worst, surgery for this now-a-days is done laparoscopically and
usually requires a small amount of healing and/or rehabilitation.

Second - having suffered for years with a knee injury I made worse by
ignoring, I can tell you this categorically - you WILL regret having
exercised on an injured knee. I have had pain in my knee almost every day
of my life after I hit 45. You don't understand how it is to live with knee
pain since you don't really realize how often you put stress on your knee in
your every day life (at least until it starts hurting every time you rise or
walk). Please take it easy and forgo the short-term pleasure of your tennis
match for the long-term complete recovery of you injury.

Hugs,

CatNipped

The tournament lasts a weekend. You need your knee to last another
forty-or-fifty plus years. Which is most important to you? MLB

Purrs that it is nothing serious. Unless the doctor makes it clear that you
can't play in the tournament, please ask him specifically and do what he
tells you. I compete in speech contests, so I understand the lure of
competition. However, one tournament isn't worth the chance of doing
permanent damage.
