I've had knee problems since a child due to a deformity (bipartite patella) which is when your knee cap doesn't fuse together when you are growing, so I basically have 2 bones floating around. I have opted out of not doing surgery until absolutely needed (probably mid 30's), the doctors told me I need to do knee strengthening exercises of any kind. They gave some but there was only so long before my body stopped responding to them. Does anyone have ANYTHING that would help??? I'm desperate! Feeling discouraged and at wits end...

    This sounds like a really great question to ask your doctor--or a great time to seek a second opinion if your current doc is no longer able to help you.
