Knee Replacement Update...
Lots of activity the past month or so. The long awaited neurologist testing which would get me into a pain management group was a bust. Pain management wanted to do a surgical implanted device! No non-invasive treatments were offered. But on a brighter note (this is bright?!) Ortho surgeon #3 has run tests and determined I do not have a bone infection...but my implant is loose. This is a huge group, at a huge orthopedic hospital and has awards posted all over their building, including joint replacements from 2006 to present. It was really nice being in a large hospital too, you go from their office to MRI, Lab, whatever. Sometimes you needed appointments in the future, often they could see you within a few hours. It took all day on each of my appointments but they get done. I am in limbo at this time. Bone scans will tell a truer picture of what is going on inside there. But statistics prove that bone scans are unreliable soon after this type of surgical procedure. Tha
