PT

Its funny really, I thought PT meant Physical Training. Like as in Army PT!

PT= Physical Therapy. As in rehab. So I went to my first Appt yesterday. Initial impressions were good. Nice quiet place. Looking out the window of the main "workout area" is a small stream and trees. It's a nice scene really. Very relaxing.

So the diagnosis is exactly what I had originally suspected. Torn PCL, MCL and potential meniscus damage. Also the potential for further meniscus damage is increased with the joint in its current state.

This all explains the sensation of my tibia/fibula "hanging there" while swimming or running. Talk about creepy!

So I'm feeling confident with the therapist. He gave me a list of exercises to do 3-4 days a week. And he seemed confident based upon initial exam that I could snowboard again with PT and a brace. Mostly for protection. Soccer, not so much. At least not playing like I used to. I can probably return to coaching kids by next year. (I like to run with the kids)

As for taking snaps for the Buffalo Bills, they will just have to wait and see! ;-)
