    I have had shots. I used ice, taken Tylenol arthritis, Rx Meloxicam Tabs, exercise in bed. There days following exercise that I hurt more than before. I have felt as thou I was going to fall. The event fightened me into making a date for surgery. My son keeps reminding me that it won't get any better the older I get. Still waiting for a date for the surgery. I have been told that zfter it is all done and over with, I'll wonder why I waited.

    This is my 4th ACL tear in 25 years, all have been in adulthood. After this recent one it was suggested I have further evaluation for a connective tissue disorder. It turns out I have a disorder which significantly reduced the chances of any ACL surgery every working. As a result of the surgeries, I have developed severe osteoarthritis. I am in a brace and suffer from horrible knee pain. I have done visco supplements, and a genicular nerve block. I am currently in a physical therapy program and pursuing a knee replacement.
