Yeah, my right knee was a large pain in the ass, too ... until they amputated at the waist. Now, it doesn't bother me at all!

From the radiologist:
1. Complex medial meniscus tear, status post partial medial meniscectomy, felt a progressed
since prior.
2. Mild tricompartment chondromalacia.
3. Chronic MCL thickening without acute sprain or tear.
4. Small effusion.

I have no idea what this means but it can't be good. The good news is that I do not believe I need a knee replacement. Doc will tell me his plans tomorrow morning.

I guess I will find out then. The PA said this was a surgery. Doc will look at the MRI himself as well.

ALl I know is my right knee is pretty much useless, hurts all the time and is difficult for me to walk and put any weight on... Hopefully we cangetg this taken care of soon..
