It is 'neural connection strength' you need. Best of luck in the coming month and let us know how you get on.
The more I think about the partial ACL tear the more I realize that I'm wasting my life away by waiting for it to heal,,,
Surgeons will not try to repair it if its not fully torn they only suggest "Physical Therapy" which is totally useless because it's like a dead end road,,,
Perhaps the only alternative for this cases is to tear it completely in order to get it fixed,,,
what is the use of having a piece of useless tissue constantly sending pain signals to the brain? If I could at least walk on it, it would make sense but if it's making it impossible to move on and it's going to break eventually then why even hold on to it?
I know how radical this sounds but if that is the only way to get it reconstructed then it does make sense,,otherwise its just going to continue being a HUGE bump on the road...I can't even get a job and since the ligament is not fully torn it's not really considered a "disability" as disabling as it really is,,,
This is not about pain,,,its more about a tiny rupture that has ruptured my life completely,,,its starting to look like I'm just going to end up homeless living in the streets and unable to walk,,,
