Hi all,
Think I’ve decided I’m finally that I’m going to do it, and have selected my surgeon.
The goal is next year to have the surgery.
Before I do my consultation, I had a question regarding preconditions to see if these may affect whether I can have surgery done.
1. I have a lateral pelvic tilt that has caused some muscle imbalances in my left leg, glute and hip, that I need rehab for.
2. I have some ankle instability/clicking from running due to having the lateral pelvic tilt. I’ve stopped running for now.
3. I have an acl minor tear I’m having fixed this year.
I have rehabilitation planned for these, but wondered if either things would stop me from being able to get the surgery due to something like muscle imbalance/flexibility.
FYI I’m 173, and aiming to be 178/179.
Thanks!

I do not think these would cause any problem for you to have surgery.
I hope you have a safe journey and reach to your goal.
We would like to hear if you can keep a diary of course.
