@monicakm I'm so sorry to hear this. I am also dealing with a knee issue and will start physical therapy on Monday...this will be ongoing for several months, I am told.
I do hope all goes well for you. The pain is totally not fun. Be well.

@monicakm Have you been given a Cortisone shot in your knee? Also I'm told the cream Voltaren is excellent. I know everyone is different but my friend suddenly was experiencing worsening knee pain. She got in to see an Orthopedist and got the shot. They also recommended the cream, and both have helped her tremendously.
Is there any way to get on a wait list in case someone cancels before your appt?
Please feel better. We miss you when you're gone for long periods of time. xoxo

@monicakm - so sorry to hear that you are in so much pain. You have been through so much these past few months. Hope you can get into the Dr before Nov. 3rd as I'm sure this is exhausting and frustrating. I'll be thinking of you. Check in when you feel up to it.

Monicakm, I feel your pain. My right knee was replaced several years ago. It feels great. I was planning to have my left done but my husband's Alzheimer's worsened and then he had a stroke. My 100 year old mother is on hospice and my beagle has cancer. My knee kills every day. I have had cortisone shots, PT, used all the gels and creams but since X-rays show bone on bone nothing works. I cannot take the time away from family that I know will be required. I read that a new, easier replacement surgery is being developed. I hope I can be a candidate. I worked out all of my life and have the knees to prove it. Now I am an orthopedic wreck.

@monicakm sorry to hear you are in such pain, I hope it get s better soon and hopefully you will be able to get into your doctor sooner, maybe a cancellation? Stay off of it as much as you can-easier said than done, I know!!!!

@monicakm Make a pest of yourself and start calling every morning to see if they have a cancellation. Squeeky wheel gets the oil....then when they do have one, they'll remember YOU.

Sorry to hear you're in so much discomfort. And I hope you get a quicker appointment for your surgery. A good friend of mine had knee surgery recently and it was so successful he is planning on doing his other knee in a few months.
Good luck!
