Good luck i've got both done, and doing great. When they take you to rehab, about a half hour before ask for a pain shot it helps a ton. Rich

Good luck Hoss.

I might be joinin' ya one of these days. I've beaten' up my knee's pretty bad snowboarding.

I went snowboarding on Saturday with the girlfriend, and when we got home, I was pretty sore. Didn't wanna move at all. Girlfriend passed right out on my bed instantly lol. Anyways, Sunday I woke up and I could not move any faster than a turtle. Took me 5 tries to get up off the couch yesterday. Bit better today, but I'm used to it.
