So the visit with the higher level sports med doc Thursday revealed that my knee is healing, just slowly. Despite the results I got Monday. I guess this sports med doctor knows a bit more about reading the MRIs than the other one and he said they lag. He would not expect to see more healing on the MRI until 8-10 months after my non-weight-bearing crutches periods. If we figure from the first round that ended mid-February that means the MRI would not show healing until like October; figured from the second time on crutches that ended mid-May, it’d be December.
And I have a plan I can live with: no walking miles & miles for exercise but walking to live my life, like grocery store, Farmers Market, short stroller walks with Jasper, are ok. And biking & swimming are not just fine, they are recommended.
Yay!
