Doc asked "How did you do it?"

I Met with the Doc yesterday to review the MRI of my knee. I answered "Do what?" well it turns out that I have a bone spur severely limiting flex, a miniscus tear severely limiting extension, severe arthritis and severe inflammation causing severe discomfort as they say. So plan A is second generation cortisone with an anti-inflammatory. Plan B, if A doesn't work is scoping to repair the miniscus tear which he says for someone with the arthritis that I have is not likely to work. Plan C, which is already being scheduled since it looks like A probably will not work, is a partial replacement. I had the other one done nearly a year ago and it has worked out just great. All I did the day that it got real bad, was to bale and stack hay, help a friend pick pumpkins, and load up the tractors for a pull the next day. So don't expect scoping to work if you are a 63 year old timer like me, or probably even a young old timer like Old.
 
I have had 3 knee surgeries. I played college football and knees are very tore up. They have taken my meniscus out of each knee and trimmed down the bone and cleaned it out. Had the shots when I played and they worked for a little bit but then it came right back. My Dr. said definitely will need knee replacements by 40. Sure can tell a change in the weather.... I’m 25 not looking forward to old age lol.... Good luck
