Severe Osteoarthritis and ACL Tear: Any Suggestions?

I have severe osteoarthritis in both knees. I also have an almost complete tear of my left ACL. Dr also said there's nothing that can be done except a replacement down the road. I'm 47. Any suggestions???

Try Coolief (radio frequency ablation). It works on my moderate to severe knee pain for about 8-9 months. It's fabulous!
