The doc says they are doing a new surgery now for PCL/ACL recon.

They take 1 of the 3 tendons from the back of your knee(inner) and drill holes diagonally on the front. And you can now kneel but you cannot squat/retract fully. And you may experience numbness. Tendons are stretchy so it may revert to the original state too.

However PCL poses a higher risk than ACL coz a vessel lies on it. If it's cut they'll have to hack your thigh apart and repair it.


The doc says he can squeeze me in for surgery on 2nd-4th feb. But hell no (I didn't tell him that though). If I wanted it I would have gone for it like one year ago? I have to collect my pink IC too sir.
