4 Weeks out...

Surgery was a success. Dr. Seng went in and Harvested the hamstring with no issues, then removed the destroyed ACL. Drilled a hole in my Tibia, the hamstring through the hole and back to my Femur where it was screwed down. Another screw was used to anchor the other side to my Tibia. The Hamstring Scar is about an inch and a half with the Arthroscopic scars even smaller. Amazing what they can do these days.

While he was in there he took care of the damaged part of my MCL (grade 1 tear, minimum damage compared to the shredded ACL) and reported that the Meniscus had healed itself and did not require further repair.

Rehab is going slightly ahead of schedule, thanks to spending plenty of hours on the CPM (Constant Passive Motion) machine provided by Kinex Medical along with diligently doing the prescribed excersises.

This will be the first week in the gym with weights and machines, I will be taking it easy but it's great to be able to see the progress. Still plenty of pain in the knee and all the good meds are gone...Each day gets better, pics to come soon.
