Hi, David,

I am always prepared to help a fellow biker but I need a *lot* more info before
I can on this. Long term problems with knee injuries are not uncommon,
especially if there has been no or poor physio follow-up. The knee joint is one
of the two most complex joints in the body & by far the most vulnerable.

I am not a medico, but if i have info on the original injury, present problems
& proposed surgery, I may be able to dig up some info that may be useful to
you.
