Default Goalie Injury Question

Just wondering if any others out there have torn their meniscus and MCL? I was playing goal last night, made a big stretch for a save but my knee got stuck and the momentum of my body rolled my right over my knee. Felt an excruciating "pop" and now am unable to bear any weight. Diagnosed with a Meniscus and MCL tear, have to wear a soft cast for a week and then go see a orthopedic doc. Anyways, my question is if anybody has had a similar injury, what kind of timeline before you could get back out on the ice? Also, were you "gun-shy" when you returned and scared to make the big stretches and movements once you got back? I'm 29 and this is my 1st real injury that wasn't just a strained muscle, twisted ankle etc. Thanks.
