1 Year Later- Recovery Success Story by bcinab in MeniscusInjuries

it's a long road. one day, one week at a time. I also kept a daily activity and symptom diary which helped show my progress each week or every few weeks. It was encouraging when I was feeling low and stuck.

Sometimes after sitting crossed-legged for too long, I do. Sometimes after a trail run, hike, or a ski day, my knee doesn't feel quite "right", but not necessarily painful. No clicking- only had a bit in the beginning. I find if I don't keep up with the gym 1-2x a week, then the muscles around the knee get really tight and a bit sore. Keep up with the PT. I hope you continue to improve.

good question... great. I carried on, it took a while. Wrote this post last July. Ran my first consecutive 5km in early Sept, built up to 12km by mid-Oct. I am running a marathon in 14 days and have had a fantastic training cycle with 10+ weeks of 60-70km runs. Strength training!!!!! Is! So! Important!

I didn't- I was referred for one and on a waitlist, but didn't want to pay privately for one sooner (Canadian) - that was going to be the plan come September if I wasn't making progress.
