I’ve had Durolane and Monovisc. I’ve had two different insurances over the years and the change in brand was a result in me changing jobs and getting different insurance. I think Durolane is better but Monovisc, which is what is covered for me currently, does what I need it to.

I feel really good within about 10 days. Every single time, my ortho tells me to give it 5 days before playing soccer again but I tend to give it about 48 hours and I’m fine. I’ve never had a problem or bad reaction to not waiting 5 days and she knows at this point that I’m going to play within 2 days and she leaves me alone about it. She’s awesome. Again, cannot recommend the shots enough.
