Okay...here's the latest update...
went to the DR today and got the results back from the tests I had on Wednesday.
I do have a small tear in the anterieor crituate ligament, but it probably dosen't neccesitate surgery.
HOWEVER (and I HATE howevers), it also showed f fratcure in the bone that the implant from the past surgery is screwed into.
Bottom line today......made appt with the ortho surgeon for Monday, and basicaly, don't use the knee for anything.
So the saga continues..thanks to all who are keeping me in your thoughts.

Oh, that was sounding good and I was preparing my "congratulations and hope for some quick healing" post. Then you had to drop the "however". I hope that this is not as bad as it sounds. I was hoping that you would be back in action soon. Are you still doing the club-clutch thing or using the leg, or is someone else driving you around? Good luck on Monday with the ortho surgeon.

Sorry to hear about the injury. Im into a lot of extream sports and i know when you have a bad injury how it can ruin your life until your recovered. Hope its painless and your recovery is quick, one peice of advice though, its better to let it fully heal before you go out and try to abuse it and end up hurting it again. Goodluck Justin

Graewulf is right. Mine is in Spring, Texas which is just north of Houston. I am "flex jealous" of PASmokeater's ride.

Okay......got back from the ortho surgeon today and FINALLY have SOME news. There is a compression fracture around the base of the implant. The result...surgery might not be neccessary. There will be a six week heal/rehab period, and they will make the determination after that.
The good news ?
Since the fracture is a compression fracture, any downward fource will only push the bones together, not do any damage to the knee. So the crutches are gone (for the most part, putting weight on it for a while will cause pain), and as far as driving The Pit, The clutch is very similer to an excercise I'll have to do for rehab. So I guess I could go wheeling, and consider it part of the rehab.
Get Tugly ready Tug, I'm on my way, and we have some trails to hit.
