ACL and meniscus cartilage surgery.

[dsaundry]

3 knee surgeries, One to repair a shattered kneecap and torn acl and mcl.
Nasty operation, Have a nice plastic kneecap{made by Dow} and have 2 knee's scoped as well..hmmm that makes it sound like I have 3 knee's
Re-phrase that...2 scopes done on my other knee...The major operation was no fun at all. 3 days in hospital {they wanted me to stay for a week, Yuk...and 6 months in a full leg cast and 2 years in physio and rehab. I must say that of all the operations the one I have the least problems with is the biggest one...Have had minor issues with the scoped knee on and off over the years..The price of getting old...I don't understand why they did a surgury on you unless you were in pain, usually they try physio and rest to see if it comes around..I hope you feel better soon though..Lots of ice on the knee...
