Meniscus Tear (Torn Meniscus)

Rhona Chambers

Starry Night! Not enough stars for my review for Dr. Sabrina Strickland and her team. Dr. Strickland repaired a root tear to my meniscus which was a 6 week non-weight bearing nightmare for an avid runner who hates to ask for help with anything. During the 6 weeks I questioned many times if I would be able to return to the lifestyle I had lived prior to the tear. I have 10 Ironman triathlon finishes and many marathons under my belt. I am currently 5 months post-op and can run 6 miles no problem. Five months until the NYC Marathon - real good chance.

Dr. Strickland did promise me one thing - skiing by summer!
