@gregjenner.bsky.social Maybe you can do an ep on the history of arthroscopic surgery -- I'm happy I got my ACL fixed in the 90s not the 80s, when I tore it - www.bbc.com/sport/footba...

I feel this badly. I blew out my knee in 1987.

Yep. So many sports people do it. And come back from it. And it can be a very big deal. i pretty much operate with 1.5 legs, given the left is weaker.

I had my triple reconstruction done by a surgeon who was the go-to guy for the NSWRL players and the centre had an integrated physiotherapy unit. So I did my rehab alongside many players I saw on the telly.

Sounds like the right place for the job. I missed out on lots of early rehab because I moved cities - possibly slowed the recovery
