QUOTE(tangtang22 @ Apr 12 2012, 04:11 PM) yea, it feels like the knee is instable right? like the rubber band holding the knees is not there anymore .. well, thats wat ligament is for, to "hold" ur knees. No matter wat, go c a doctor n mri la~ Did MRI dy Lo doctor keep referring to other doctor has been dragging for 3 weeks each diff doctor appointment takes a week .. Sien , next week will see the doc operating my knee then only I know when I can have the operation, |

QUOTE(VeeJay @ Apr 12 2012, 11:59 PM) did you go for a second opinion? Actually for a ACL, injury there is no hurry, hence there is no urgency from the doctor's end. I too had ACL injury and torn meniscus on both my knee, but I opted not to operate. ANd do rehabilitation (physio,if you may call). I had to rest for one year to regain both my leg strength since that had shrink-ed. The choice is yours but do a learned decision. bro thanks for the advice i know its no hurry.. but in order to claim my insurance my agent ask me dont drag too long.. and i want to do sports.. i mean possible that no longer able to play football.. at least i can play golf or something lighter without any trouble.. if i dont do operation i scared i cant even enjoy light sports.. i can feel that im gaining weight lol!!

If u want to have an active lifestyle n play sports, do consult with ur doctor n see what are the options available. wow .. thats very good.. what sports do you play? any sports that you try to avoid? any do's and don't? im just very scared it will snap again if i go over the limits
