When I had mine back in the '80s they wouldn't let you put weight on the leg for 8 weeks. That was the worst part. The leg was a toothpick by the time the two months had passed.

It will get better. Just hang in there.

Thanks man, I keep trying......it's just a lot worse than I imagined. I made a joke that no longer will i go "man, I hope he/she dies", I will wish them to have ACL surgery cause the aftermath would be worse. :-)
