Hey guys.
I work in uniform patrol and I am a member of our services part time emergency response team.
In my younger days I played alot of higher level football, and surprisingly never had a serious injury, especially to my knees (lucky me!), that is until last summer when I played on our depts not so competitive city rep soccer team when I blew out my ACL ligament in my knee. I have already had 1 scope where they cut out a good chunk of cartilege that I tore up, and this week I go for ACL reconstruction...yikes, and ouch! but I am tired of wearing a knee brace at work and having a very loose and wobbly knee. I really havent been able to jog or run hard on it since my injury, and it has sapped my strength.
My question to my brothers and sisters in uniform is have any of you had this surgery and has it affected your on the job physical performance in a negative or positive way??, any opinion/experience or input would be greatly appreciated.
thanks just a little nervous
