I ended up returning to sports but was in pretty constant pain and I developed a bad limp just to walk around. It stated to impact my hips and rest of my body.

I ended up going to a different knee specialist who helped me walk normal again and live pain free, but she was also very clear that I had to give up sports which require pivoting. So I had to give up all the sports I loved (hockey, basketball, tennis, etc). But I don't have pain most days, and I can walk normally.

Not horrible but not a success story. I miss sports dearly. I have a recuring dream where I show up to play hockey an I've forgotten my stick and therefore have to sit on the bench and watch everyone else. Doesn't take an expert to interpret that dream!

Damn man, sorry to hear about this. Now I want to send you one of those edible bouquets.
