Sorry to bump an extremely old thread chaps, I just had a couple questions

It seems that I may have torn my ACL, or that is what the doc thinks anyways. IT happened a couple of months ago and my MRI is scheduled for the end of October. (About a 3 month wait from the original appointment)

I am wondering for those that paid for an MRI, was it worth it? I can afford it, but I only have 2 more months to wait, it sounds like a couple of you guys had 6 months.

Also how was the pre-surgery physio? I might be crazy but it seems like I have lost some mass in my quad muscle.

And how long after surgery were you able to drive? I'm just wondering how long I'll be off work, I'm a pilot and we have rudder pedals and stuff like that....

Anyways it sounds like there are a number of people who have ACL injury experience, just looking for some first hand accounts.

Thanks
