Q: Acl Surgery

Hi,

I had ACL and meniscus surgery about two years ago and I'm STILL don't have feeling back in almost half my knee. My doctor kept telling me it would go away but I stopped asking when I realized he really doesn't know. And I can't really put weight on the knee either. It hurts!

Are these common problems? I mean I know that my knee would never be the same after I hurt it but I wasn't expecting so much of a difference.
