I know this is asking for a lot... but has anyone ever experienced or heard of a case of cartilage regeneration?

The patient in question is a 50 year old male who underwent arthroscopic surgery 10 years ago after he tore the cartilage in his right knee. The "doctors" removed the damaged cartilage and predicted that in ten years he would have to replace his knee with a plastic one; at present, he has reached the point where he must make a decision about the knee because it is very painful; however, he is quite adamant about fixing his predicament "without the knife" and I happen to be his support.

Personally, my feeling is, that it certainly is possible, unlike the many experts who have told him that he must have his knee replaced. My hope is that the body can do it if it receives the correct stimulus.

I would be greatly indebted to anyone who can shed light and insight on this matter...

Thanks so much, gracious team
