I had some of my best Vet D class racing after the surgery. Just find a doctor that can fix you for these sports, rehab, and definitely let it heal.phatbstrd said:Thanks for the info guys. I will follow rehab to the tee. Not looking forward to it though due to the anguish i am hearing about. This will probably cause me to quit racing but its not like i was very good anyway before. Prolly just stick to the woods and dunes with braces on both knees.
That's a lie! You had your best racing when *I* was there. (Mostly to powerwash your bike for you)James said:I had some of my best Vet D class racing after the surgery.
Unfortunately, our racing "careers" rarely crossed. You were out when I started, then I had a string of injuries when you came back, and then you had crashed yourself out again when I came back and then went into hiding somewhere near GA. I am pretty sure all of the great power washing incidents happened on trail rides. I haven't been knocked out yet so I am sure my memory is better than yours :nener:High Lord Gomer said:That's a lie!

That is exactly why I loved that motion machine. I got a couple beers laid on the couch , strapped my leg in and laid back to watch TV for 3 or 4 hours. I never lost motion in my knee at any time and really think that sped up my rehab. :cool: Now I see my friends son in an immobilizer a month after surgery limping around and all I can think is the atrophied muscles and how stiff the knee is :(. That can only make rehab harder and longerDan105 said:.
I just found out that I go for my first PT appointment tomorrow. They can work on my muscles but Im not bending my knee yet, no way!!
another very important recovery item-NEW BATTERIES for the TV remote. It will be your best friend at 3 AM when you have seen the girls gone wild commercial for the 10th time and your wife will not get come down to the livingroom to change the channel for you. Don't ask why I know (I even called her from my cell phone to ask) :yikes:phatbstrd said:Wow guys! Thanks soo much for the info. The ice cuff and motion machine is something i never thought of. The more info i have the better i feel going to the Docs. My doc said I would be walking on crutches in a week. I am hopeful my story is a less painful one than Dan's (sorry Dan).
