I am 80 years old. I was misdiagnosed with neuropathy but it turned out to be restless leg syndrome. I had right knee pain from my no longer functional right knee and some severe pain when I stepped the wrong way because of a nerve impingement likely caused by my severe misalignment. The treatment and symptoms of the two are very similar.

My incredible surgeon went in with a minimally invasive approach (mini midvastus), gave me a bicruciate retaining implant (that means I still have my real ACL and PCL). did not use a tourniquet, used a CORI robot and did a Functional alignment. I went home that night and I have had no post surgery pain (the same surgeon replaced my left hip three years ago and I had no post surgery pain then either). My surgeon's recovery protocol was to commence PT in the third week. I followed his instructions and that week my PT measured my ROM at 122. On the 27th day post surgery I was on the golf course.

So my advice: find a great surgeon and follow her instructions. It is worth doing but do keep your neurologist informed and involved.
