I was diagnosed with Patellar tracking disorder in both knees – I was advised to go to Physical Therapy, wear knee braces and take pain pills. What else can I do? The doctor said I will always be in pain.

Has anyone received Shock Wave Therapy for patellar tendonitis, using the Sonorex / Sonocur equipment?
I just started, and since I haven’t read about anyone else (besides Dwayne Wade) doing this, I figure I’d post my results.
How it goes: you do 3-5 visits, 8 minutes each, for about $300 a pop! ouch. but the real pain is with the actual therapy. they can dial up the intensity between 1 and 7. Depending on the location, 3 was unbearable to me. But, it actually feels like it helped after only one session (i have 3 more). it’s expensive, but i’ve done EVERYTHING else to try to fix this problem (RICE, physical therapy, eccentric exercises – although i just started, but it re-aggravated the problem). Stay tuned for my continued results.
