My last knee operation didn't work. My knee has become unstable again. As much so if not more than before. This has gone on for too long. Don't know what else to do. Feel so drained. Tired of fighting, tired of hurting, tired. Awards

Wow, thats some injury. I asume it was from a severe incident. My experience with these types of injuries tells me its usually a long slow recovery. In most cases, patients also have a meniscus tear as well. The tricky part is you cant do to much intially because the MCL has to be totally imobile until the ligament is set. I asume you got donar ligaments? With that said, recovery is slow. The combination of multiple ligament damage and rehab being posponed makes it frustrating. In many cases, it would have been better it you had a tibual plateau fracture, had a few screws set and not torn all those ligaments. Surround yourself with positive people and dont let this get your spirits down. It will recover, it may not be at the level it once was but it will get better. Shamu 1 Awards

Prolonged pain and illness tends to make a person frustrated and depressed. Take care of yourself the best you can and try to find the good in every situation. I know it's tough but when things are bad, attitude makes a big difference. Praying for you. Need some inspiration? Check this guy out. I'm a little partial probably because I'm a die-hard Gamecock fan but this guy is amazing. http://www.colts.com/news/article-1/GRUESOME-KNEE-INJURY-FUELS-MARCUS-LATTIMORE/394b9891-7e8e-476f-9a95-d582962e6b30 Awards
