Has anyone had knee surgery? Please let me know your experience and what type of surgery.

If you had a graft let me know what type. Thanks in advance.

yeah knee surgery in Dec. 2008. I had really screwed up my knee in a roll over wreck. I had torn ACL, MCL, fractured both bones below the knee, fractured knee cap. I had to get ACL replaced with a donor one. Therapy was a little rough. All in all tho it was good. Recovery takes awhile and agravating at times but you learn to cope.

Thank you. I am not having my ACL reconstructed right now. I have a meniscus injury and we are going to take care of that. He thinks that my ACL may not bother me as my knee doesn't seem that bad.

Yeah I had that too. I hope all goes well for you tho.

I think I have something similar in my left knee...since the summer. When I kneel down...I get a sharp pain on the left side of my knee...like someone is ripping my skin apart. It's gotten better over the past 2 months because I have been making sure not to do that..but what happened was, I was carrying my daughter down the stairs and fell...I landed full weight on one knee hlding her up so she would not fall. A month later I noticed that when I knelt, I was in pain. People told me it could be my ACL or something like that.
