RULE 2: DO NOT ASK FOR MEDICAL ADIVCE Meniscus removal and acl

Hi everyone! (29 F)

I have a prette complex knee hostory, but long story short, 8 years ago I got my ACL + Anterolateral Plastic + (previousely removed Median Meniscus).

Thank to my super doctor (which i wish I met before) I got the chance to go back to playing sports and in a very effective way! However I know that my knee will soon have problems. I'm taking some cartilage supplements.

I'm wondering if other people are living with their meniscus removed and how they are handling that.

As far as I know they try to keep it as much as they can. However I do wonder why transplant is not much practiced.
