What Causes Knee Pain After ACL Surgery?

I m having chronic knee pain after surgery on one knee(ACL) and meniscus on the other knee. After almost 2 years after initial injury, I am in still great pain and have difficulty walking. I ve been to numerous doctors and my last visit resulted in. Rx for pristiq to ease the pain. I am reluctant to continue because I felt ill and had rapid heart. My primary doctor feels this us the only thing that can help. True or not?
