I tore my ACL about 9 years ago and blogged about it. Now, I've done it again. This time the right knee. So, I thought it would be fun to blog again, collect more data and compare my recoveries. I hope this blog provides help to those of you out there in the same situation as me.
Nov 15, 2014 - Eight days after surgery (the second week)
Sleeping is still uncomfortable as the only position that feels good for my knee is to sleep on my back. If I were a back sleeper, that would be great! But, I am not! Today was a big day. I was out for a number of hours and went in the pool (walked for 15 minutes) and went to the grocery store and walked around. I am pooped and am now sitting on the couch. I came home and immediately put the C&C machine on.
