Initial course is to get the inflammation down. I'm taking vast amounts of ibuprofen, but it's just not getting any better. Going back for a follow-up this week.
The funny thing is, people say "you're riding a motorcycle with a bad knee?"
Well, geez, people... I'm not PEDALING it or anything!

It just proves how little they know about riding  Once we're on, we don't need our knees for much! I'm awaiting a double-knee replacement and have a handicapped plate on mine - every 6 months I get injections to replace the synovial fluid - it's the same exact process as getting them drained except they depress the plunger instead of pulling it- *shrug* it works, but isn't the most fun in the world!
