[QUOTE="oldguy, post: 693173, member: 16965"] Glad to hear the surgery was a success. I had the ACL, MCL and lat replaced as well as screws in the femur and tibia head last year in November and concur with the above posts. Mine was done with a piece of hamstring as the replacements. I had a set back during mine as I was allergic to the screws used and this delayed the calcium replacement. I had a second surgery to remove the screws 1 1/2 months after the first. From this point on recovery went fast. I still had trouble kneeling on the patella until about 7 months after the first surgery ( remember I was 48 yrs old at time of surgery). I did experience some depression that the healing was not progressing at the rate I expected but Firecracker confirmed I was close to hers which made me feel better. Pain after surgery was nothing compared to before it and I really think the motion machine helped immensely. PT especially on a recumbant bike also was vital in recovery. Good luck and keep a close eye on him to make sure he is doing all the PT and also not adding his own program without checking it out first. [/QUOTE]
