In November 2018 I had a meniscus root repair and OATS procedure. Prior to that surgery I had 3 ACL revisions the most recent was 16 years ago.
The November surgery failed because of an incompetent surgeon.
I had Dr. LaPrade do a revision in August of 2019. He did a meniscus root repair, OATS procedure and ACL revision using the patellar tendon from my other knee.
It was a tough and painful recovery.
I finally had no pain for a couple of months and now the pain is back and is severe. I can’t think of an acute injury and I have only been doing PT and stationary biking.
I am 48 years old and an in excellent shape. I have three kids and like to be active. It’s painful to stand and watch them play a soccer game.
I am going to LaPrade tomorrow to have him take a look. I have a feeling he is going to say it looks okay structural. But it’s swollen and hurts.
I am thinking it’s time for a TKR but this is devastating to me and not sure I could go through another surgery. I’ve had 9 on this knee. Has anyone tried the Radiation Ablation therapy for knee pain? Or long term use of Percocet?
