I had a serious Trailbike accident 4 years ago nearly leaving this world after a broken pelvis,femur,radius and ulnar loosing great amounts of blood and a torn up knee!!!!! ouch
I was first told that I had torn my P.C.L in half resulting in a grade 3 sag
After 3 years of flights and much rehab(in the public system) I have been told that the P.C.L is complete but is slack
The surgeon in Perth had told me that it is a grade 2 and he will operate next year (recon).
He explained that he could not promise anything as most of the time they can only get the knee to a stage 2.
Can some one please let me know how others have gone with this and if it is worth spending the money and going private ( I have no heath insurance) but would like the best posible outcome.
Anyone please????
