    Knee Injuries

    Just found out that I have a Grade II MCL Tear and have torn the Medial & Lateral Meniscus in my left knee. I have schedule surgery for April 9.

    I am sure there are many out there who has had this injury and has either had surgery to repair or have been just dealing with it.

    Looking for your story on how it went, recovery time, succes of reapirs, etc...

    If you are local to the Burlington Vt area, who was your surgeon.

    What realy sucks about this is how it happened, getting of the chair the guy next to me stepped on my left ski tail and drug my leg out in front of me, down I went on my ass, and than pop went the knee. 25 years of hard skiing and countless ege beater tumbles, etc.... & I get F$#SKd up getting off the chair. That is why speed is your freind.

    Thanks

    In Burlington you should try Dr. Slauterbeck or Dr. Nichols. I you don't mind a bit of a drive, Dr. Huber in Morrisville.
