Knee Surgery Update
13 years ago
General
Well, it's official. I am having knee surgery.
But the thing I'm worried about is that, I know why my knee has been jumping out of place.. Apparently I have an abnormal femur growth.. So I have two options of surgery.. One is replacing my torn ligaments with a donor ligament.. Which is a 75% which the doctor isn't completely sure if it will completely work because of my abnormal femur.. The second surgery is a 100% but that surgery is a MPFL Reconstruction which would put me in complete bed rest for two months.. If you're curious of how that works, here is a video ---> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t--P0iavLAQ
The doctor said that the first surgery will help a lot and keep my knee from dislocating, least that what he hopes, it's a big question because how deformed my femur is..
But I can't take off two months of work.. So I am going to try the first surgery with the donor. x_x; I'm going to have the ligaments of a dead person inside me.. *shivers*
But yes.. Wish me luck D: Hopefully it will work, but if it doesn't.. I will have to have the second surgery..
