[QUOTE="zero_it, post: 694690, member: 18548"] Since meniscus keeps bones from grinding together and in proper alignment, the more you have the better. I'm happy to have all of mine in tack after 30 years on dirt bikes. I'll have plenty of other aches & pains to deal with later in life, I don't need that complication! I'm 9 years out on an ACL replacement and meniscus repair and have very little problem with that knee. Nearly two years after the surgery I started having swelling around the small screw in my tibia (where they connected the "new ligament") nearly every time I rode. In a quick in & out surgery they spun it out and made my life a bunch better. Approx 3 years ago the knee started bothering me again and swelling in the joint and under the kneecap after playing soccer. I started taking glucosamine (500 mg) with MSM (300 mg) daily and now enjoy pain free living, including dirt biking and soccer every week and a fair amount of mountain biking. About the only limitation I have today is I can't bend the knee back as far as the other, lacking about 5 degrees or so. The new ligament is really tight, so I don't get any popping. Everybody's experience is different and I know they handle the post-op therapy quite a bit differently today than even just 9 years ago. They seem to be a bit more aggressive with getting motion and weight bearing back. [/QUOTE]
