False MRI, there’s hope!!

Posting for those that might be in a similar situation- ACLR and meniscus repair in June and I was experiencing swelling still, MRI showed a very large signal that was leading us to believe the repair didn’t heal or it’s a new tear (was in the red white zone). Spoke to two surgeons and both were very confident. Had surgery two weeks ago with my original surgeon and turns out the MRI was very wrong!!!

previous stitches were intact and the meniscus was healing, just lots of scar tissue despite me having full ROM that was irritated

I had heard a lot about false MRI’s but everyone was so convinced including my original surgeon but wanted to share good news and if anyone else has had this experience!!
