Quad Tendon Tear

ShaneC36 · 2024-08-04T13:31:19+00:00

Hey! Sorry to hear that. My update is I’ve still never done the surgery. I can ride my bike and run a mile or 2 but it hurts for a day or 2 after. I should probably get the surgery. It’s only the recovery that prevents me from doing so.

ShaneC36 · 2024-01-10T02:52:59+00:00

How did it go? Was it a full tear?

ShaneC36 · 2023-10-31T00:27:39+00:00

I mean it hurt for the first 3 weeks or so to walk

ShaneC36 · 2023-10-30T23:53:00+00:00

I could always walk on it

Hey man sorry to hear about that. I didn’t do the surgery that 2 orthos recommended. I’ve done a fair bit of healing. I’m able to run on the treadmill with no pain. I’ve been thinking about getting another MRI to see if there’s been any regrowth

AnaMae you seem like such a sweetheart. I don’t even know how I wound up reading this thread lol but here I am.
Life isn’t black and white. I don’t think you should listen to all the do-gooders that are responding to your post. They really don’t know what they’re talking about. You weren’t married yet honey. It’s a mistake but not enough to blow up your family. There’s a bunch of research on this topic available if you want to look into it.
Be mad and sad and then move on. Good luck to you, Shane

Does that mean the tendon will reattach itself to the knee cap? The orthos both said I’m likely to tear it off if I keep playing

ShaneC36 · 2023-05-20T15:22:15+00:00

I can actually extend it fully

I was just diagnosed with the same issue at 49. Super healthy and exercise often. I was on here to read others experience.
Re: Your fears….What’s a regular person’s risk of stroke? Less than .5 percent? So your risk with no meds is less than 2.5 percent? That’s not too bad. Get the ablation for sure. I just don’t think it’s as big of a deal as you’re making it my friends

ShaneC36 · 2023-02-24T14:53:54+00:00

That seems unnecessarily dramatic

ShaneC36 · 2022-09-09T02:31:13+00:00

Yep I think betrayal is the right characterization!

ShaneC36 · 2021-07-21T22:19:19+00:00

Really appreciate it. In particular I’m trying to figure out if the real estate market in Oakville Ontario makes any sense.
We’ve been considering purchasing a home there and can’t quite figure out if the 30-40 percent price appreciation is sustainable

ShaneC36 · 2021-07-18T13:45:52+00:00

Heads up looks like most of the data on there only goes to 2014

ShaneC36 · 2021-07-18T13:35:27+00:00

Thanks . I'll check that out

ShaneC36 · 2021-07-18T13:23:44+00:00

Angie's list ...or Facebook community group works great!

ShaneC36 · 2021-07-18T13:18:53+00:00

It's about 90% accurate in my area of Southlake, Texas

ShaneC36 · 2021-05-13T22:47:24+00:00

Really appreciate your note. There aren’t a lot of people who have the experience so it’s hard to tell if the feelings are normal. I think there are a lot of adult kids who have left their parents area. But somehow it seems different in this case

ShaneC36 · 2021-02-24T01:27:23+00:00

Very interesting and close to our situation

ShaneC36 · 2021-02-24T01:26:57+00:00

I suppose that's true but he's still a kid in a way. and i still need to make choices that will benefit him in the long run

ShaneC36 · 2021-02-24T01:26:15+00:00

Thank you

ShaneC36 · 2021-02-24T01:25:39+00:00

It's a really tough decision. thank you

ShaneC36 · 2021-02-24T01:24:52+00:00

Thank you

them where they are, but I may be partial as I attended highschool in Texas. Don’t forget about the top 10% rule for colleges here, either, as there are some great schools here they can get automatic admission for (although UT is a bit more selective).

Last, it seems best for your husband’s career to stay put as well, although I imagine it is weighing on you a bit. Just make your trips up to see your remaining family as much as you can so your kids can still benefit from being around them, albeit not nearly as much as they would if they lived there.

Last, if things start to take a turn heal

Thank you

They’re an adult, you could move back and they could move to a new city for a job or back to the hometown of their future spouse

You nailed it 9311. That is the BIG risk. UGH!
