That said, I've read of folks like yourself, and others that took like six months...
I feel very fortunate when I hear stories like that.. I only stayed in the hospital 2 nights, was back to work in under 2 weeks and not using crutches or cane after 3 weeks or so. I did work out like hell for a month and 1/2 before surgery even doing some running that hurt like hell but figured I couldn't hurt any more...
