I appreciate the feedback. .

I've had 3 failed ACL surgeries (Dec '05, Nov '06, May '07), and the doctors cannot tell me why they failed. None have failed due to me trying to use them, but rather doctors think my body can't heal an ACL graft. I don't smoke, so all the doctors Heap, Carter, Cummings, cannot tell my why they cannot get a graft to work.

All doctors I have talked to refuse to do another ACL suregery since they feel that it would do more harm than good.
