Thanks for your prayers. I had my MRI last night. The radiologist is reading it 
this morning. In her unofficial opinion, the radiology tech thinks my ACL is 
blown too. Normally they aren't supposed to say anything, but I kind of know 
her. I'll find out for sure after the radiologist reads it.
 
So surgury might still be in my future... horray.
 
Tony
