mine feels pretty good today. still a little twingey but not bad. but with this ice/snow crap we got going on i will be homebound for the foreseeable future. can't even get out to my shop. don't want to chance it. Probably not a bad idea considering the ice. Just don't let it stiffen up on you.

A new? procedure? being advertised lately. Precision injecting something(gel) into the problem area with the aid of new super duper cameras to help pinpoint the exact locations it needs to go to?
Is that the euflexxa? Have already had meniscus repair, now just bone on bone or a chit load of arthritis that my surgeon saw nearly15 years ago.

gunzo I went through 3 series of them without relief. It's worth a try though cause they told me it was about 50/50 chances it'll help and the injection needles don't hurt as they numb it some beforehand.

the euflexxa is for the bone on bone and arthritis. it had minimal effect on my problem. the first ortho i used sucked.

There are different products, they all work about the same. Euflexxa takes 3 injections a week apart, I take MoniVisc now,one injection.They both worked for me. .Yep, getting it exactly where it needs to go is important. Might be why it works on some and not on others.

They can see pretty good with a MRI. That should be the first step before giving euflexa, it was 1000 bucks a knee on my insurance. Maybe that is why it was administered I guess.
