Cecil I feel for you, at least you have the option of not using your elbow. I'm operating an old 80 ton Lorain Koehring friction crane on a job right now setting iron on a new building and my left knee is killing me. Ibuprofen isn't helping, it feels like the front of my leg and my knee cap have been beat with a ball bat. We are working 8's and by 2 o'clock my leg is whipped, I can't use my other leg because it is running the throttle. Thing is the job is only a 3 week gig, so I have two weeks left to go, my only fear is it will leave me unable to do other work, but I need the money. Pro football players play thru the pain, but they work under multi-million dollar contracts too...
