    Good luck with your surgery! I had mine 8 days ago and it was super painful!!! And now all I do is eat and lay around while trying to take care of my kids. Not fun.

    It gets better! I'm 4.5 weeks post surgery and am moving around pretty well - back to the gym with limitations. Post surgery the nerve block was really helpful with pain for me. Getting out of surgery sucked though.

    Hope your recovery is going well. It is really hard with kids to make time for yourself and get to PT but keep it up. :) I had my 4th ACL reconstruction (3rd for this leg) back in December. This one has been the slowest recovery of them (prob because of my age) all but I feel pretty good now. Add me as a friend if you would like some support from someone who has been there done that a few times.
