Thanks for your replies! I finished the 4 weeks of therapy yesterday. I am due at th orthopedic doc on july 1. I have decided to get one other opinion, as I have the name of another doc that I would like advice from before I decide about the surgery. I first slipped the week between Christmas and New Years. I thought it was a sprain and just kept hoping it would get better and finally went to the doctor. I will let you know what I decide to do. Thanks for your concern!
