hi
i saw my 3rd opinion os today and finally somebody has agreed that something is wrong and is willing to sort it.
he is going into the knee to remove a lump of dead tissue that it directly at the front of the knee in the middle. but i cant remeber what he called it.
he said that because my fall was so bad on the knee that it damaged this bit of tissue and it has now died and become hard and could be the causing the problem.
he also said whilst he is in it he is goign to shave something, i think he said knee cap - is it this that he would be shaving and if so what is it and what happens.
i am sorry that i forget everything he said i was just so happy when he said he may beable to fix it and so he is opening the the knee up i cant remeber what was said. ive been trying to look it up on google but cant find anything on anything to do with either and i realy want to know what he is doing before he does it if that makes sense.
he did say that i would be in huge amounts of pain for at least 6 weeks after the op and bending will be very hard but i cant bend it at moment anyway and he also said i will have a big scar on knee to but i also dont care as long as i can walk again.
any help or advice or even suggestions on what he may have said would be gratly appreciated as i think i will go mad trying to find what he said before the op (i could be waiting up to 6 months) and may end up scaring myself
