Is it still giving you much grief?

What does the doctor say?

Tell me your NOT overdoing it.....

Oh Yes.Its still quite bothersome.The problem is that the knee gets unstable and you can start walking fine and pain free but if there is an uneven sidewalk or you pivot to quickly the knee gets unbalanced and it hurts to No End.

Doc told me its going to hurt for about a year and then it should mellow out.But he also told me that I have a high Probability of needing an artificial knee replacement within the next 10 Years.

As far as overdoing it.I try not too but just walking or standing up from a sitting position can get to be a chore.

Oh no.....are you in therapy?

Well, one cannot avoid walking or standing but my thoughts & prayers are that you are pain free very soon!
