I have a question for you....
I see a post from you that you "jumped out of airplanes"?
Is this true? There is a type of neuropathy called peroneal neuropathy that affects the nerve behind the knee.
Sky divers and paratroopers can damage this nerve from those activities. So when you go to the doctor make sure and tell him of any activity that can compress this nerve. Even in the past.
Crossing the legs alot while sitting, squats and kneeling for long periods can also put stress on this nerve. Your leg sticking out of the bed may have done this too, if that vulnerable part of the back of the knee was on the edge for a long time.
You can ask for a nerve conduction test to test it.
