I Had my ACL repaired, and meniscuses too!


Recommended Posts


I haven't had my ball joints or suspension knuckles done yet, either on my car's suspension or on my legs or arms.

I need surgery on my meniscus, any running, jumping or extended kneeling blows it up, it is affecting my ACL also.

This thread should be in the 19th hole

Well, I had it all done, still painful after 3 weeks, but the knee was buckling and when it buckled, oh boy, throw up pain! I had this injury 18 years ago on the job with a torn acl, and back then , someone said "If you can get by with it, dont do the surgery." But for 18 years I have babied this knee, and now the surgery is way better than then. I dont even know how it will feel when it is better, but Ill tell you right now, it isnt buckling anymore. Maybe Ill join Major League Baseball now! hehe.

Keep me up to date with your progress, I need to do the same some day. It is starting to hurt like jam up, when I walk.. All because of a slip on a snowy/icy incline... :rolleyes: Good luck with the rehab. I had shoulder surgery, YES, the pain was bad after the surgery I know what you mean.. Here's to a speedy recovery

Well, its been a month and a half, progress is good, with therapy twice a week. Crutches were gone in a week and a half, ACL brace has been gone for two week. Movement is good, had to learn how to walk again correctly, weird, your quad muscle becomes "dumb" Somedays the knee hurts, but for the most part its not a factor. At least 3 more months for it to be fully healed...

Glad to hear the recovery is going well.
