Going Under the Knife Tomorrow

[MJAlltheWay24]

I had a thread on here a couple months ago about how I tore my ACL, well I am finally having my surgery tomorrow morning by Dr. Bilbo at St. Elizabeth in Edgewood. Not really looking forward to it, but I'm completely ready to start the process so I can get back to playing ball and running in the gym.

 

I know it's not a super serious surgery, but I'd still appreciate a lil prayer from some of the BGP family if you can squeeze me in haha!

Good luck and hope everything goes well.

[Big Slick]

You will be better than ever in no time!

[mcpapa]

I hope everything goes well.

 

PS - a hobbit is performing the surgery?

[HammerTime]

Good luck man...

 

I saw people claiming your goods in the event of something bad, so I would like to put my name in the running for the PS3. Just kidding man hope all goes well.

[True blue (and gold)]

Prayers sent for you. Serious surgery or not, all prayers have worth.

 

I had the surgery back in 2000. I seriously had very little pain, but people tell me that I must have a high pain tolerance, because they had more pain with the same surgery.

 

One strong recommendation. DO NOT skimp on your physical therapy. Your therapist will give you exercises to do on your own. DO THEM!

Prayers coming your way, MJ. Best of luck!

 

And listen to TB&G, she's a smart cookie.

Hope it goes well! thoughts and prayers headed your way.

Prayers for a smooth surgery and recovery. I had a career-ending (if I had a career) knee injury 3 years ago and had to undergo months of recovery and rehab. I definitely understand your situation. Best of luck with the surgery and rehab.

I agree on all the PT you will need to do. Also use the Cyro/Cuff you will probably get. It helps with the swelling and my son said it made it feel better with all the cold water running through. Give us some updates when you can.

I hope everything goes well.

Keep us updated on how things go. My son tore his ACL in an 8th grade basketball game in January when he was 13. He is now 14 and in a holding pattern for surgery because he still has to grow some / growth plate closure, before his doctor will perform the surgery. I am anxious to hear how the surgery and rehab goes.

Good luck!

Good luck MJ!
