[quote=Anonymous]Some of us are stumbling across this with the same question, so the newer comments help us too. I'm 15 weeks pregnant with radial tears to both the lateral and medial meniscus. Both are radial tears and the lateral tear extends all the way through the full thickness from the front of the knee to the back. Injury happened in the first trimester but they would not do an MRI until the second trimester, so we just found out exactly what's wrong. I've been in PT for 2 months with little to no improvement - it'll be better and then worse and so forth because I keep getting bigger and my hormones are crazy. My mobility is terrible and I'm in a lot of pain. I am not allowed to take ibuprofen due to the pregnancy. I found this thread when searching out the safety of the surgery while pregnant, since I know they want to stitch it back together. It may not help the OP anymore, but it certainly is helpful to people like me![/quote]
