After nearly a month of this and only a month and a half left until club volleyball tryouts. 

Dr Badger gave me my options. 

1) stay on the same path. and although it was slim with my case. we may see improvement. 

2) Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) injections- the take blood out of you, spin out all of the white blood cells (healing blood cells) and inject it into your knee. 

3) Surgery- although it is the most drastic. it also shows the most response. They will cut into your knee and perform a patellar tendon micro fracture. They cut into you, take out the dead tendon and drill 3 holes in your knee cap to stimulate blood flow.
