Played basketball today...

First time out playing hoops since the surgery. Thinks felt pretty good, but I sure noticed not much strength when it came to doing layups and jump shots. I was beat, I mean really tired after 2 games. Usually I play for 3 hrs without much problem, but not today. The knee still has tweeks and sorness but overall not bad. Good to be back to almost normal....6 months, better then I expected.

6 Month report....much better!!

Something happened when I hit that 6 month wall and my knee has really turned a corner. No longer do I have the pain when I stand up after sitting for an hour or more, or driving long distances. For some reason my knee just seemed to jump forward and excel in its rehab.
I saw the doctor a few days ago and he gave me the "go" to start doing more sports, but gradually work into them, not just jump in and start playing in 3-3 tournaments . Running feels pretty good too. I hope to play some light basketball later this week and again next week and see how things go. Woo-hoo!
