well i went to the doctor today and its not good i have four options 1. having my knee cap removed 2.a joint lubricant therapy 3. a procedure where they realine the knee cap 4. total knee replacement. so thats what i'm facing ,option one having my knee cap removed will stop the pain but i will never be able to bend down on it again, option two lubrication therapy will help the pain but its just a temporary thing. option three realining my knee cap it helps with the pain but it doesn't have a high success rate and i will have 1 year of rehabilitation, option four total knee replacement with this i will get relieve from the pain but while in surgery i could get an infection loose blood and have to get it from a doner and i will be laid up for three months with 8 months to a year and a half rehabilitation and option four is like reconstruction of the knee so i have six weeks to decide what i'm going to do thanks for letting me rant i needed to vent

 

That sucks man. My grandpa had a knee replacement and it didnt go well at all. Whatever you do choose, the best of luck to ya.

 

what didn't go well with your grandfather mason

 

damn dude that sux. i honestly dont know what i would do...hopefully which ever u choose will end with good results.

 

I hope you feed your laweyer Peg....damnit...if I had a choice like this I'd be beating things...

 

tell me about it another option i have is not doing anything so yea it sucks and this is a second opinion from a diffrerant doctor and yes i talked to a lawyer and they said if my doctor trys to do all of the options i talked about no case so now i just want to go beat things but with my luck i would hurt the other knee damn i'm so depressed i can't stand it oh and thanks guys makes me feel a little better knowing i have hcf as another family

 

Well there were complications in the surgery first of all. Some reaction to something but he recovered from that but now basically his knee is completely imobile and he just has troubles getting around. I think they are suing for the doctor soon.

 

ouch i hate to hear that hope he's doing better

 

damn...idk what i would do either, good luck with whichever option you choose...if they remove the knee cap, do they replace it?

 

Jesus Darryl... that just ****ing blows.. but which ever option your choose then best of luck to ya.. i hope that my knee never gets that bad
