I def. heard a tear when the accident happened and it
swelled to twice it’s size in a matter of hrs.
I visited an OS and he told me that it was def. an ACL tear.
I haven’t had any x-rays or MRI’s done.
I mean I can def. feel that something’s going on in there (in my knee).
It’s just one of those things that you can put in the back of your mind
and go about your day.

Pre-ACL Surgery
I had my acl replaced on my left leg december of
2005. I was in PT for 12 weeks following this. It was PAINFUL and if i
had to do it again, I'd think really really really hard about it.
if you have no pain, and are able to do the eliptical, why are they doing
surgery?
just wondered.

Hi Christina,
I tore my Quad tendon, and
had a limp lower leg, so surgery was scheduled asap. As far as I
know, your surgery is less painful, with a faster recovery than mine
is. If you went to Yahoo videos and typed in Knee surgery, you will
see testimonials, and videos of the surgery, ewwwwwwwww. That site has
been helpful for me ..... take it slow!

Hello, I my name is
Christina and I am new to this!
I tore my ACL back in June '07 and will be getting surgery this April
some time.
I am just wondering how bad it is for me to continue my morning
fitness routine of about 20-30 min on the Elliptical machine (only
twice per week) at the gym?
I don't feel pain when i'm done. No more then what I feel on a daily
basis (which is very minimal).
I just wanted some insight to anyone that may have had the same
thought's before their own surgery...
