Oh, no!! I tore my ACL. That was years ago. They just went in and cleaned it up. I sure have missed that ligament. No safe lateral motion. Went from racket ball and tennis to bicycling. I hope they can repair your tear and not just remove it. Bless you.

I'm pushing for removal. I had my left one removed over 20 years ago -- NO problems w/it. This one, 3 yrs ago, was a "repair". NO MORE REPAIRS! I want total fix! This is b-s having to have this done every time I turn around.

furthermore, I have to report to work tomorrow. Yes, that's right -- WORSE weather than Friday - when we were closed -- the courthouse is closed, all the schools and STATE offices are closed -- but US? NOOOOOOOOO, we have to report to work.

I will be in a bad mood for the next month or so. Thanks for listening to me vent. And now back to our regularly scheduled insanity.....

All this time I thought I should have gone with a repair, but now I think the doc did the right thing. It's true that I can't do lateral movement sports, but I can run, bicycle, walk, yoga and I don't have any issues unless I hyper extend or strong lateral movement, but otherwise no problem. After hearing your experience, I'll stick with no ligament. Hope all goes well. Also, I understand that recovery is easier and faster with removal rather than repair.

PS vent all you want. You have something to vent about and you are with friends here.

Hope you're back up and shoveling poo before you know it!

That stinks about having to go in tomorrow! I have a feeling they will rethink that in the a.m. :mad:

I glad you got a good laugh. This is what happenes when your typing, your husbans talking to you even tho he sees your trying to do something, and cooking at the same time!! I can only multi task a few things before something falls apart.
 
23 here & sleeting like crazy. My boss called & said stay home. I had planned to do that anyway. With this bum leg I dont' want to risk falling OR ending up in a ditch. I haven't seen a single vehicle on our road this morning. Our side patio has about 1/8 inch of solid ice on it. And it's supposed to get worse before it gets better. I sure hope our power stays on.

Think I'll go cut up a chicken & make a pot of chicken & dumplings.

Yall stay safe & warm!
