Hello. I'm a 34 year old active woman who had a very sudden IT band issue. Once resolved it became general patellar femural pain progressing worse and worse. I had to keep walk during my job and it just ended up worse and worse as I was stiff legging my stride. Ended up getting and MRI... and well... image

Got a cortisone injection and that helped a bit... and a PRP... but they're saying i'll need a tibia osteotomy and cartilage transplant and will need 6 weeks to recover.. This is all very shocking to me, i was walking fine one day and unable walk the next. Anyone gone through or seen this before that can give any guidance?
