It took a year after each for my knee to feel 100%

This makes me feel better ... and the doc (former LSU lineman) told me there is no reason I should stop running. One tear was there for YEARS (like 17) and no one ever picked up on that as being the reason for the pain I was having.

I've only been running for 3 years ... Doc said run 100 miles a week if I wanted to but if meds and ice were needed after runs it was time to see him again. He also told me 2 weeks after to do what I wanted ... I mentioned something about not going to boot camp and he asked why -- told him stadiums/box jumps/etc and he said there was no reason to be worried (I still didn't go back to that though). No arthritis was found ... will be 46 in July so I was happy to hear this.
