Here we go I will do it short as possible. 97 had ACL reconstruction R Knee. Since the surgery I had normal life as far as doing what I wanted other than running. Oct. 07 knee locked up while working and x-ray revealed severe arthritis Nov. 2nd had it scoped then I got a staph infection. Nov. 6th had another scope to get staph washed out. Got a call the day before Thanksgiving that the staph was still present another cleaning day after Thanksgiving. This time the knee was opened up and hardware (screws) was removed from the ealier ACL surgery.
After that I started PT range ROM was only 20-87 degrees. So we done a MUA range only increased only 5-7 degree.
Went to another OS he did an MRI showed I had scar tissue so on Feb 2nd the knee was opened up again and scar tissue removed and 3 euflexxa injections in the following 3 weeks. ROM got better 14-107 and seems to have stalled from there.
The Knee is still painful while using it and stiff especially while bending with weight on it. I've been on pain killers for 4 month

anywhere to 4- 5 a day, no work in 4 months, disability pay is only 50% of income and credit has been shot and I'm a competitive cyclist, so no training or racing since Oct 31rst.
What gets me aggravated is the OS and the PT has different opinions on things. Who do you listen too? I have had 4 surgeries in 4 months so maybe I'm progressing the way I should. I don't feel that way Here is some photos after the 2nd surgery.
