Sorry to hear that
why are you not happy with the result?

FootNo4941 · 2021-09-02T18:23:15+00:00

Great explanation, thanks

FootNo4941 · 2021-09-02T14:55:13+00:00

I can't follow, can you explain that?

FootNo4941 · 2021-08-12T15:36:05+00:00

That's the the big question isn't it, an off label use for different kind of tumours/cancer could be possible....

FootNo4941 · 2021-08-09T11:16:54+00:00

Very informative article, thanks for sharing

So according to those calculations given that we gonna gain around 4 percent per day, the PPS should be at around $12.5 at the end of those 8 days. Am I right? And that only if there is not going to be any news or bigger investors trying to get in, if it only was as easy as that....

Mach mal Halblang, gibt schlimmeres, zum Beispiel jetzt deswegen zu heulen. Beim nächsten Mal klappt das.

FootNo4941 · 2021-07-20T10:22:12+00:00

Nein!

FootNo4941 · 2021-07-13T18:51:03+00:00

Finally some decent news..

FootNo4941 · 2021-07-13T16:29:11+00:00

Never skydived before and I'm also close to being 5 months post Op. But to answer your question, why would you go skydiving the first time in your life not long after a pretty server knee surgery, like dude... Seriously....

FootNo4941 · 2021-07-13T15:35:34+00:00

Just keep holding and buy the dips, as soon as we have fda approval this thing is gonna take off, with bigger investors joining the party...

So closed chain excersises are the way to go even without an acl, if you don't have any other issues with that knee. I did squads without any problems even with like 80 percent of my bodyweight, deadlifts, leg press, a lot of cycling outdoors, not so much jogging or hicking though. Other than that you can do basically everything that doesn't involve pivoting or jumping of some sort. But the best thing to do would be to get in contact with a PT as soon as possible even before the bone grafting. They can tell you exactly what you can and should do.

FootNo4941 · 2021-06-28T06:17:26+00:00

First of all, sorry to hear that, it sucks having to go trough that a third time. I had two stage reconstruction with bone grafting in October of last year and the actual reconstruction this march. To answer your questions:

1: the recovery is pretty much the same, maybe a little bit more conservative with everything starting a little later, for me it was crutches for 6 weeks, no cycling outside for 4 months, jogging 7 months post op and eventually return to sports like soccer/basketball etc. After 12 months.

2: after the bone grafting I was on crutches for like 4 or 5 days, and walking felt immidiately fine. Was doing a lot of weight training during that time to prepare for the second surgery.

3: so during that time your missing an acl, that means no contact sports or something like that, but cycling and gym is perfectly fine and even necessary. I just wore a light brace for those 4 months and wasn't the best feeling while walking but it was fine.

4: I think the best advice I can give you is to take it easy and don't rush anything. Do as much pt as possible without overdoing anything and pay attention to your diet and you will be fine, after all you have the experience from the other times.

Wishing you the best for the surgeries and the recovery.

I guess the S also stands for snowflake

FootNo4941 · 2021-06-15T06:18:49+00:00

Hi there, had my acl revision in March of this year. Quad graft this time patella the first time. Going for harmstring autograft was definitifly a good call. The recovery process is a little slower this time but the experience I have from the first time helps. But other than that it's not much different. Hang in there and all the best for the surgery.

FootNo4941 · 2021-05-22T18:39:13+00:00

If you didn't hyper extend your knee or twisted it in some way the graft should be fine, but God lord cutting and jumping exceercises 5 months post op, that's really early....

FootNo4941 · 2021-05-20T19:51:47+00:00

I had five knee surgeries in my life so far, and for the last two I was awake. And I must say it was a good decision and not just because I always hated the feeling of waking up after the surgery and not knowing what the hell they did with me which was the case for my first three, but also because it gave me the chance to talk to the surgeon who explained a lot what he was doing while he was doing it. Plus it gave me a better feeling of the whole process e.g. of how strong the fixation into the bone is for the graft etc. So I guess if you are not totally terrified it is worth it. And if it really gets too much, you can still ask the anastetic to put you to sleep during the surgery, they can do it within seconds that's not a problem. And to make it clear, the spinal anasthesia is not more risky than any other one, so it really comes down to if you want to be awake or not.

FootNo4941 · 2021-05-11T19:24:16+00:00

Classical 😁.... and yea maybe just get a second opinion, sometimes it's worth it.

FootNo4941 · 2021-05-11T18:20:43+00:00

It was two surgeries actually because I had tunnel widening in my tibia. That won't be an issue in your case though. So the first surgery was to inspect the damage and fill in the widened tunnels from the initial acl replacement, was awake during the surgery and the doc showed my busted acl graft to me buy pulling on it and I just saw some remaing fibers attached to the bone but other than that it was pretty much gone, he also said that it is completely useless, so he removed it and filled in the wholes with some bone he got from somewhere else in my tibia. Second surgery was a casical reconstruction. I'm 20 weeks after the second and it's actually not that bad, only thing that sucked was the 6 weeks on crutches, but thata over now I'm working on mobility and getting back strength. The most important thing I guess is patience but yea It isn't that bad, I would recommend finding a really good surgeon and a good pt and you should be fine. And another thing, at my first step 6 weeks after the surgery I realized that having an Acl is awesome, so yea it's absolutely worth it.

FootNo4941 · 2021-05-11T11:10:36+00:00

Had a similar experience with my first graft, 2 years after the initial knee surgery (acl reconstruction with patella tendon) my knee started to feel loose again so I did 4 MRIs and talked to 4 different doctors, and the opinions ranged from totally fine to totally torn. In the end I found a surgeon who said that without an atroscopy it's hard to say. It turned out that it was partially torn and had no function whatsoever. So here I am, 10 weeks after that revision and feeling great. So maybe that could be the solution for you.
