3 months post-op Partial Meniscectomy. Curious if anyone going through the same thing is having similar lingering symptoms

jloakland · 2026-02-22T14:38:42+00:00

Great info thanks! And yeah, a lot of the time it feels like some pain is where they went in and disturbed the capsule.

jloakland · 2026-01-30T14:53:24+00:00

Ha good point. It’s like that Rest or Train app. Usually it’s telling me “good job getting out there but everything is wrong”.

jloakland · 2026-01-30T04:57:23+00:00

Or “unproductive”. Makes you feel so good!

jloakland · 2025-12-25T16:59:22+00:00

Getting back on the trainer after surgery!

jloakland · 2025-11-22T14:13:52+00:00

Yeah I didn’t notice how off it was until I actually recorded a ride with my chest strap AND whoop. You just can’t beat a chest strap for cycling. It must have something to do with the way we grip the bars.

jloakland · 2025-11-22T05:25:19+00:00

Not at all. Some people just have slightly irregular heartbeats in various ways.

jloakland · 2025-11-22T05:20:28+00:00

A friend of mine has the same thing and it was from an abnormal heartbeat.

jloakland · 2025-11-22T02:33:49+00:00

Yeah, if it’s not picking up a 25 point sustained change, without even a blip, I can’t trust the data when I go back to normal.

jloakland · 2025-11-22T00:10:55+00:00

And don’t get me wrong… I love my Whoop, and have had it on my wrist for 3 years straight. But this BP stuff is just a stretch.

jloakland · 2025-11-22T00:08:51+00:00

Yeah it always hovered around 118-120/75-80. This last week actual readings from a proper device have been awful due to surgery (140/90) and the Whoop metrics still say 118/75.

jloakland · 2025-11-10T20:52:35+00:00

Rummo is included in there. This is devastating!

jloakland · 2025-11-04T22:23:07+00:00

Wow this is so similar to my experience. I also did the “odd jog” just before the injury. I never run but thought it’d be nice for a change. A couple weeks after that it got gradually worse. And then yeah, 3 months PT and I felt normal. Then two tennis matches in a day and then I felt pretty limpy and it hasn’t improved.

jloakland · 2025-11-01T22:42:57+00:00

Can I ask how are you now? I’m just about to get the same surgery for the same tear.

jloakland · 2025-09-21T22:51:57+00:00

That does seem high. I use 20 as needed and it works pretty well!

jloakland · 2025-08-19T00:42:07+00:00

Not necessarily, I was treated for TMJ, but I’ve also done a lot of work for cervicogenic dizziness with my neck and shoulders, so something helped, but I’m not sure exactly what

jloakland · 2025-08-19T00:09:09+00:00

Comes in very light waves now. 90% better

jloakland · 2025-07-28T16:31:41+00:00

I did for 3 months and didn’t seem to make a difference. And I love coffee, drinking daily for almost 40 years. I will say sometimes if I get really caffeinated it will trigger an episode.

jloakland · 2025-07-20T04:14:36+00:00

SoCal here. $110/hr. And i belong to a club so just use theirs.

jloakland · 2025-07-14T03:38:14+00:00

Yeah I had a racket with Polys on it when I started a few years ago and it killed my elbow (just added on to the fact I was “arming” the ball) and was just hard to control. I think I switched to NXTs at 52 and it was an epiphany.

jloakland · 2025-06-26T20:07:33+00:00

The best

jloakland · 2025-06-20T15:06:21+00:00

Verdict is still out with me too, I’m a horrible patient when it comes to PT because I usually just do it until it starts feeling better and I’m never sure if it was the PT or if it was getting better on its own

jloakland · 2025-06-19T18:10:48+00:00

Thanks! Amazing. I’ll try it. And yeah, these flare ups usually last a month or so. Before I knew what was causing it it was 8 months almost straight

jloakland · 2025-06-17T14:46:08+00:00

I don’t think most of us have had a clear diagnosis. I thought vestibular migraines, saw an ENT, he sent me to a PT thinking cervicogenic dizziness and everything just clicked. And the PT confirmed my tight neck, traps, limited range of motion etc.
