So the official diagnosis from Dr Halbrecht is that there ia an oblique tear extending to the inferior articular surface midway between the free edge and meniscocapsular junction beginning in the posterior body and extending throughout nearly the entire length of the posterior horn of the medial meniscus. (posted for Shawn and the 'rents who may actually understand all that).
Surgery date is set for 4/28/06 - they wanted to do it on the 26th - but I'd prefer to have a happy birthday instead! Prognosis looks like 3 months of rest and no high-impact sports (good thing the ski season is over - although ABasin remains open till June -sniff- no more summer skiing for me this year). She recommends a lot of biking... driving will be difficult for the first week or so (sniff - no hot rod WRX for a week... maybe it's time to sell it... either that or teach Liz how to drive stick and trade cars!)
I'm off to my physical... I'll post more later.
