If anyone's even interested! The knee snapped six weeks ago and put me on crutches for a couple of days. Since then it's been on and off again using a cane or crutch sometimes, depending on the terrain. One orthopaedist shot cortisone in there to no avail but on a return trip to him he said the word arthritis and someday joint replacement. Went to another ortho today who specializes hips and knees and he basically said the same thing. I have an appt for an MRI and consultation with the second ortho. He said he'll probably scope it to clean it up but he said right away it might not work. The Xray shows a fairly decent gap between bones so it's not bone-on-bone yet. So there it is folks.
