Any Transplant Recipients? Opinions wanted...
I think you are really asking two questions- first, whether to ride at all, and second, what possible complications would there be in the event of an accident.
I've chosen to ride, and as a two knee replacement man, I sought medical advice. The answer I got was that repairing an existing repair probably wouldn't be any worse than reconstructing "new" damage. I also have spinal stenosis (bone spurs, etc. pressing on the spinal cord) which is actually improved temporarily after a ride.
While bungee jumping and alligator wrestling are probably bad ideas, a "siege" mentality is infinately worse. Go for it...
