Would knee replacement resolve the issue? Do you think you will undergo more surgery? Have you sought out any national experts on your particular injury?
I really didn't see this coming, even after the accident I thought I'd go back for a cheeky ski trip with the insurance money. One good thing, is that this has given me an appreciation for things (I was somewhat coasting through life at the time), when I have a good day I make the most of it.
A knee replacement is a fix, although not ideal. There is no going back and would mean having to get my knee replaced every 10 years, could be as low as 5, plus it takes around a year to recover each time (I'm in my early 30s so this means numerous operations). Having met many people in hospital who've had hip and knee replacements, it's not something I'm keen on. Saying that I have an uncle who had his knee replaced 15 years ago and has had zero problems.
With the medical advancements, even being able to grow cartilage from stem cells. I want another go at getting it repaired (was SO close last time!), although I am tempted to go the knee replacement route..
