:( Frustrating indeed....Keep in mind, though, that while waiting is frustrating, it has its benefits---the other stuff settles down. Is there anything else going besides ACL? I bet you could safely start stationary bike, easy does it. That's all my son did before his. Just range of motion stuff. This place likes full ROM pre-surgery, no swelling. Different story if meniscus is involved. His were full-on grade 3 tears, I have incredible scope photos - they gave him a whole contact sheet each time: photos of before/during/after. Amazing.Currently frustrated, because one of the receptionists of the ortho I decided to go with somehow screwed up booking my surgical consult (which was for next week), and just let me know today. It's problematic because he's going out of town and booked solid before then, and won't be able to see me til mid April. I'll be calling and seeing if there are cancellations, or if another receptionist can hook me up at all (the one I'd talked to previously was quite helpful). I don't wanna just sit around on it. If I could see him and make a plan for PT and have surgery scheduled before he goes out of town, I'm happy. I don't want to wait a month to get the ball rolling though, so if I can't get something sooner with them, I'm looking elsewhere.
