On Wednesday night at hockey I folded my leg up beside me so my heel met my hip. It was like when Rob Niedermayer became the human pretzel in Long Island in 2000. Those of you who remember the injury clip are probably wincing right now.
After getting checked out today I was told that I tore my ACL but they couldn't perform a a complete examination because my knee hurt too much.
I have to follow up on Monday to see if I'm going to need surgery. If I do, I could be waiting months just to get it done and then another 6 weeks before I can even skate again.
Anyone have any tips on staying "up" while I recover?
