December 16, 201015 yr 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!
December 16, 201015 yr 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.
December 16, 201015 yr 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!
December 16, 201015 yr Prayers coming your way, MJ. Best of luck! And listen to TB&G, she's a smart cookie.
December 17, 201015 yr 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.
December 17, 201015 yr 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.
December 17, 201015 yr I hope everything goes well. PS - a hobbit is performing the surgery? That is good!
December 17, 201015 yr 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.
December 17, 201015 yr Good Luck if it don't work out I will chip in on the wheelchair. Just kidding I am sure you will be fine.
