I have a question for those who may have expereinced this type of knee injury. I posted almost four weeks ago that I had hurt my knee (my little dog and I had a little collision).
I'm finally going for an MRI tomorrow. They think I may have torn my meniscus and maybe injured the cartlidge under my knee cap. I'm sooo nervous and am praying I'm just a wimp who heals slowly!! I haven't been able to really do any cardio or lower body exercises in almost four weeks. I've been doing some leg raises as instructed by the doctor but that's it.
I'm just wondering if you've ever had a similar injury did you have to have surgery? Can you do squats and step aerobics now? How long did it take to heal. I'm really bummed out!! I was really wanting to be in great shape before we started trying for our second child this July - but this may put a kink in things. I also am on the preorder list for the new videos and am wondering if I'll ever be able to use them. This sucks really bad!
Thanks for any input!
