My knee doesn't feel good...

- 8 weeks post ACL surgery. I wish I could tell that everything is running smoothly but I can’t. The first weeks I was going super fast and could do a lot. At some point my knee didn’t want to go as fast anymore and now it gets swollen quickly… I have to go back to crutches, minimum training exercises and rest. I’m in this schedule for the past 2 weeks already. In the protocol you can test an ACL 3-5 months after surgery, a physio tested it 6 weeks after surgery, which is not ideal. It happened and I can’t turn it back. Today I’m gonna do a MRI to make sure everything is good. It can be some cartilage in the way or something with the screw, which requires surgery (chances are very small). Most likely it is an inflammation which just needs the right exercises and a good balance of training/rest. The MRI is necessary to rule out the other possibilities and helps me to continue with a peaceful mind. I can’t sleep well and I’m honestly scared when my knee reacts so fast. I’m overthinking if I’m not making it worse which definitely doesn’t help the progress. Other than this my mind and motivation is very strong. Whatever the outcome is, I am gonna do what needs to be done and I will be back a 100% without a doubt 🚀🔥
Cheers Pips!

What I 've learned from dealing with diagnoses and recoveries is to never look at how and how fast others heal... Every body is different and will react/heal differently from each other! Keep your head up pip!!
Stay strong Pippa! You're young, you'll be alright. A few months is nothing in a lifetime, but it seems forever when you see no progress. Catch up with friends, and make a list of fun stuff you want to do while you're recovering. Learn a language, read some books. It will make you feel more 'productive' and in a better mental mindset.

Had ACL surgery + meniscus and things didn't start to feel "good" until the 12-24 month period as I got back into sport (was doing lots of physio before then). It does get better!
Go Pippa go! Stay strong. We are all with you!!! 🙌💪💪💪💪
Hey Pippa, all the best see you the next time on the water.

Dear Pippa don't lose your positive attitude and believe in your strong power. we send all positive energy from Germany
Head up!! It’s all in the head and also the healing goes from the head!!!! 🤙🏽👍🏽
Actually, the healing of the knee happens in the knee. Your head has very little to do with it.
Good luck in your recovery.
Stay strong!!
Stoer om ook dit te delen.
Met jou instelling moet t goed komen 💪

All the best

Hey Pippa, ten eerste heel veel succes en sterkte met het hele proces! En bedankt voor het delen van de ups en downs. Iedereen post altijd alleen maar als het goed gaat. Heel vertekend beeld geeft dat. Ik ben nu 4 maanden post-op en het revalideren gaat bij mij ook niet zoals ik had gehoopt. Binnenkort ook terug naar de orthopeed, super eng en super kut, maar we gaan door 💪🏻
Sterkte meid 🙏🙏🙏
Let’s go Pips💪🏼 we will together make it happen 😃
Do you know Wim Hof your fellow citizen? Don't hesitate to visit him he can help you for sure
Hey Pip, i'm sure you know that each recovery is individual... There is little point to comparing yourself to others. We all do it none the less, i guess. One just has to realize that positive mindset helps healing and dealing with the situation, but also makes you very prone to overexpect your abilities and over exercise.
Just rest assured that a good and pain-free life will most likely be possible again, but your knee despite all efforts won't be brand new... Like a used car, it will continuasly need a tiny bit more maintenance effort to be reliable... Easy whilst being an active athlete though. Just let sports and videostuff go for a while and do other things, like music/art/education... Its about staying curious and nothing could throw you of your path as you might just change it if something gets in the way.
... I have been on the water only two or three times this year, but still had the best times of my life, cycling, mtb, changing jobs, getting to know people, just being open to influence of others and trying out new stuff... I'll get back to kiting, there is no hurry, i just know that the right time will come
thank you for sending me this message 😇 Really appreciate it
Pippa❤️❤️
take 9 month for fully heal.
💗🙏😘
Koppie op Pip 😘🍀
Trust your body, you got this!
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger - Hope it's only getting better from here on out!
thanks for sharing! Will definitely have a look at it
what happen my love
I'm on my 2weeks now from acl surgery and meniscus. I'm always watching your vlog... hope your doing well
Hey Pippa, not a nice news, I just want to share with you, that I had experienced the surgery of ACL and Meniscus, my knee was swelling 9 months after the surgery, doing everything I could, and no one having a clear explanation of why my knee is swelling.. my mental state was devastated, until I accidentally met a guy that instantly explained to me what is the reason, and he literally saved my life.
If your recovery doesn't go as planned, feel free to contact me and I will give you all the details.
All the best
Petar
