I know a few of you monkies have gone through ACL reconstruction and I was wondering how long it took and when you felt fully repaired, and for those of you still in the stages what your recovery has been like.
I'm in almost my 5th month of recovery and still don't have the full ROM, can't fully extend my leg and it's a bit slow. Is this fairly normal or am I falling behind? As far as strength, I'm still not as strong in my left(injured) leg as my right and the lack of muscle is quite visible.
My main question is, at what point could you extend your leg fully? And at what point did you regain the muscle you had lost? How long has it been since surgery, are you able to participate in biking at the same level?
Thanks for any help.
