Guys, all I can say is: take care of your knees. In 3 months, things will be great. Right now, I'm earning remission credit for Purgatory. :bawling:

Well, an update. The worst appears to be over. I'm walking without a cane and driving. Still have many sessions to do with the charming young lady who appears to be a direct descendant of the Marquis de Sade, but it's all worth it. My major goal is to get to 120 degrees bend in the knee - yesterday I hit 106.

In case anyone is interested, this is what my left knee looks like on the inside:

I was about to ask you which knee, I suspected left because you were driving so quick. And yor left looks a lot like my right..... right knee kept from driving for several weeks


How is it going now, PT was fun I see..... The young woman I saw first.... all I can say is the guy in a medieval torcher chamber had nothing on her

Oh, absolutely not. I see my new girlfriend :) twice a week and I do the exercises at home. I have very specific goals that I need to achieve.
