at 5 months post op, I have made a full - and I mean FULL - recovery. I am riding hard every day, wearing out my horses, and the last two nights in a row we were out until late in the night bucking 100lb hay bales to get them stacked and in the barn before the rain comes. Lifting them was harder on my forearms than my knee... in fact, it never even gave a little. I forgot I even had a bum knee... well, It isn't bum anymore!
I have to just say, that my dr did the most fantastic job. When I prayed and asked for a good surgery, I never anticipated my knee could come out of it in pre-injury shape. But that is just what has happened. And I thank God for it every day!
