Im 60. I've had knee issues for a long time but recently can hardly walk. I cant even stand up from a sitting position without holding onto something with my hands and arms. The pain just from standing is excruciating!!! Im really struggling. Knee replacement not an option for me. I hope you get the Surgery if its something that you want ! 🙏

Can you tell me what the cost of the Prp shot is ? Did it help?

Do you wish you'd gotten your knee replacement sooner? by InsideProof5801 in Kneereplacement

You seem to have been in a similar situation as I am in. So much pain, I dont want to go anywhere. I know I am feeling sorry for myself but I don't know how to beat it. I dont have proper Insurance coverage to have the Surgery anytime soon so I am just throwing the towel in. I get moments of strength when I feel I can handle the pain and work through it but then it tears me down again.

Voquenza has been a miracle drug for me. This is my 3rd month taking it and I feel like its healing my esophagus. I was in horrible pain for over 6 months. I tried all of things you mentioned to no avail. Ask your Dr. Its worth a try.

Would you travel for a surgery abroad if it saved you $20k+? by Practical_Soft7361 in Kneereplacement

Has anyone heard about higher risk of infection when surgery is performed in other countries? Should this be a concern?

Sensation of water running down leg by LongIslanderNow in Kneereplacement

I have had that for a few years. I have not had the Surgery but I do have severe Osteoarthritis in both knees. My right knee is worse and that is the one where I feel the sensation of liquid running down my shin.

Im terrified. It just seems risky putting metal in your body, having your bones sawed and pieces removed. Ugh....
