MRI results:

1. high grade tear (near 100%) of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) secondary to a pivot shift injury mechanism.

2. partial tear of the proximal lateral collateral ligament.

3. sprain of the medial collateral ligament.

4. transchondral injuries of the lateral femorotibial compartment as well as the posteromedial tibial plateau.

ACL provides 90% of knee joint stability.

basically, only surgery can lead to complete recovery. physio can only help to minimise my chance of dislocation and that's provided that i don't dance intensively.

perhaps i shld go for the surgery... but only 90 to 95% of those who undergo surgery can have full recovery. i don't trust my luck. i can always fall in the 5 to 10%.

like you did.

i don't know. i'm lost.

life choice.
