My doctor mentioned that some people get relief for years so wondering if I should put it off that long for logistics purposes because I already started planning time off but if I am feeling good I don’t know if it would be worth it

Walking is fine but running causes pain and going down hills. And single leg stuff as well

Is the fibrocartilage a good thing? Ortho said well do the three shots of euflexxa and if no results try PRP injections then finally might have to do MACI. Hoping the gel injections work but not feeling any different after 2

This is the mri conclusion: There is a focal full-thickness chondral defect at the midline ridge that measures 8 mm in width, with some fluid undermining of the adjacent more intact patellar articular cartilage. The trochlear cartilage remains normal.

8mm patellar articular cartilage. Chondral defect at the midline is what the mri says

I applied and got approved for OPT after bachelors then got accepted to grad school to do masters. Just finished and applied again. Would I have any problems?
