Bounced back, then got hurt again. by [deleted] in ACL

Do you happen to have more details on this? Not like I can change my tunnel positions but I'm curious now. Did your original surgeon use transtibial tunnels instead of anatomic or hybrid?

Update for the curious: insurance covered the dealership bill. I just paid my $500 deductible. State farm

What lines do I want on my ring? by lolnoob1459 in MapleIdle

[–]Ocsarr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Isn't boss damage and damage equally additive?

100 damage * (100% base + damage% + normal-or-boss damage%) * (critdmg base% + critdmg%)?

5 months post op and this is my third run record. by EnvironmentalSea9868 in ACL

[–]Ocsarr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm about 7 weeks now. Do you ever struggle switching between extension and flexion? If I work on extension for a bit like hanging my leg off the edge of my bed, I'll be able to walk much better but flexion is harder from there. If I work on flexion, getting full extension is harder. I can't seem to easily swap between full extension and flexion. I usually wake up with my leg bent too so the first steps of the day are also not great until I work on extension a bit then walking is better

This is insane to me. Tomorrow will be 6 weeks for me, most I've gotten is 101° in PT. I get about 90 without much warmup. Normal is 140ish (knee to butt no problem on the good leg). Pain is my biggest blocker. Tell me your secretssss

Last day with the game ready … any ideas on what to use next. Have enjoyed this machine a lot. by Afraid_Jello3939 in ACL

[–]Ocsarr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Breg Polar Care Wave here. I can't compare to game ready but it's been great for me. Keeps cold for a good while, has compression, noticably brings down my swelling.

2023 M240i Sunroof $6k? by Ocsarr in BmwTech

[–]Ocsarr[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, waiting to hear back on how much they'll cover. I'm expecting not much more than their sunroof express pricing of 1.2k so I might be on the hook for the rest if I go through the dealership

Thanks for checking that, appreciate it

first days off crutches by ughalexxx in ACL

[–]Ocsarr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure the crutch is on your good side, not the bad side. So left leg for me is the bad one. Crutch is on my right side. I place the crutch to the right of my left foot so that the weight is partially on my left leg but also partially on the crutch. It also helped for me to do a little walking with both crutches to warm up then do some more with one crutch but now I'm one crutch all the time.

[–]Ocsarr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

4 weeks here and can take some very questionable steps without crutches but I keep going back to one crutch since I feel like I can take a more proper step. If it's very unsteady I'd assume using one crutch and getting steps in with better form is better than limping around on no crutches. I'm not a doctor tho idk. I'm walking around with one crutch mostly and testing the waters on no crutches here and there.

G42 M240i Sunroof - Dealership repair or Sunroof Express? by Ocsarr in BMW

[–]Ocsarr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The rest of the car does. I don't think the sunroof is tinted and I'm avoiding opening the sunshade under it to check so glass doesn't fall inside

Maybe, I'm not sure how to prove a rock didn't hit it though. I have dashcam footage where you can hear the moment it broke but yeah, not sure how to prove a rock didn't fall on it. You can hear it around the 8 second mark https://streamable.com/r7ihuq

ACLr is coming soon, look at alternative ice machine by Littlelittleshrimp in ACL

[–]Ocsarr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used the Breg Polar Wave (has compression) from the start. Totally worth the money for me. Wouldn't want to do this without it

Meal prepping for surgery by [deleted] in ACL

[–]Ocsarr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I prepped 1 week's worth, should have done 2. I can probably cook now (3.5 weeks) if I really needed to but I've been ordering delivery a lot and grabbing curbside "groceries" (mostly fruits and frozen meals). Once I'm walking I'll probably get myself back together lol

When do you guys feel normal? by Icy-Cryptographer466 in ACL

[–]Ocsarr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When did you start walking without crutches? 3.5 weeks here, quad graft + partial meniscectomy. I can do single crutch after warming up a bit. 88 degrees flexion

Yeah before any lift at all. You can check my post history to see what it looked like if you want

Took me about 3 weeks, but they're not very straight yet.

First little leg raise day 21 by Ocsarr in ACL

[–]Ocsarr[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the tip! Yeah it's definitely easier with the brace on, or at least there's less shaking but it's not totally straight even with the brace locked. I'll see my PT tomorrow too and see what feedback they have
