PCL injury is rare to occour...but since you have the MRI report stating the conclusion ...you should seek an orthpaedic Arthroscopic surgeon's advice.....A minimal invasive surgery followed by 12 weeks of PCL rehab protocol will make you perfectly fine....for the time being brace your knee and dont put undue preassure on it.
Regards & take care.
