Update: September, 2009

I've started a new blog - http://returntorunning-djs60.blogspot.com/ - to share to story of how my attempt to return to running turns out.

I think it's relatively uncharted waters; when I asked my surgeon at my 2 year followup visit in April, 2009 if he could think of any patients who he had done a patello-femoral ACI on who had returned to a high level of athletic activity, he looked thoughtful and said he couldn't immediately think of any. Which wasn't what I was hoping to hear. I should add that this surgeon is the most experienced ACI surgeon in the United States. So, I am hoping I can tell him the next time I see him in April, 2010 that I am back to running...
