thank you guys so much for the love. i took an MRI yesterday and will have my results by tuesday. Today i have my first physical therapy apoinment and it went really well. he was able to get my knee almost completly extended (which was the thing i was not able to do). I am hoping to be able to ride banksgiving so that is what i am praying for right now....

Best of luck with your knee,hope it isn't anything serious. When I had my MRI it picked up the MCL but missed damage to my LCL,I didn't know about the LCL untill I went back to my Dr. because of continued pain.I talked with a few other Dr.'s that said sometimes MRI's miss things.Always good to get 2-3 opinions. Hope you have a speedy recovery and get back on the water ASAP.

Sucks, but still not as bad as a full ACL surgery.

Chris Barcellos, thanks for the support. Mine isn't that bad of a tear, they don't need to stitch, they have to use this weird liquid bandage that is going to put the tear back into place and allow it to heal naturally. I should be back out in about 6 to 8 weeks depending on how the surgery goes. the main reason i am this bummed was i was supposed to go to banksgiving, ride the last stop of cable pro tour (in my home town) and ride pros and joes. so i am bummed my season has come to a screaching hault. All i can tell you that my halo/skate/gh3 steez will be off the chain Smash

YAY FOR NO LIFE Sad

Andrew Masi, i had to have that same surgery once... medial meniscus... surgery not bad, recovery not too bad, but if i could give you one piece of personal advice that i learned the hard way. it would be this:

DO YOUR PHYSICAL THERAPY!!! AND TAKE IT SERIOUSLY

i blew it off and it took me over a year before i could use my leg like i used too... and even now, 4 years later, i can't bend it all the way when it's cold out. do your self a favor and be militant about rehabbing that mother.

good luck, my prayers are with you Very Happy

Andrew Masi, If it makes you feel any better I think banksgiving has been postponed. Maybe youll be in tip top shape when it happens. Get well quick man.
