Wow... If it's not one thing, it's another....

I am actually about to have TTT surgery to take the load off of my patellofemoral joint and help realign the patella.  I have gotten progressively worse :(. Every step hurts.  I hope they can do something for your hip!

I felt horrible, but it was discovered during my surgery that the microfracture had healed perfectly.
