The verdict is in…
I will be competing in October.
The Ortho gave me the thumbs up to ride again, and to compete. It looks like there was no ligament damage, just fluid. Apparently the fluid is what is causing all the pain…damn fluid.
Other than pain he says I won’t have any problems. He said the fluid should reabsorb within a few weeks, but to come back in six if the pain doesn’t go away. No brace, no rehab!!!
Yaaaah Me!
I had a lesson scheduled within five minutes of walking out of the office…I obviously do not waste time with things.
A little bad news…I have been told not to fall anymore. Ha! Like that will never happen again. The thing is my sternum has a fracture in it. I’ve been told that when it fuses back together it will never be as strong as it once was…in a nut shell that means that another fall like the one I had could do more than just fracture it again. So it looks like any cross country work I do will include a protective vest.
By the way, that is an actual frame of my knee above. I love technology!! They gave me a copy of the MRI disk.
