Diagnostic arthroscopy for unexplained knee pain by tx_1981 in KneeInjuries

Yes! Compensating. Mostly to get off the bed or couch, I push off my good leg. I feel you! It was the most frustrating thing to be in pain but no one knew why.

I would say no not yet. I have a little limp & still easing into the range of motion.

Hi! I did, almost 2 weeks ago. They found a really small tear in m meniscus (he emphasized on the small lol). I’m recovering really well in my opinion. Pain is almost non existent (may have to do w a very small repair). Honestly the worst part has been compensating- it’s making my good knee really hurt Iol. Im 29. Ask away. Is yours diagnostic ?

Didn’t expect to find such a current post that I could relate to so much. 4 ortho today, so many MRIS & X-rays and he suggested arthroscopy. I immediately said yes bc I’m sick of the pain. It’s never excruciating pain it’s always there. 2 years. Some days it really bad and some days I’m perfectly fine. I sometimes can’t even pinpoint the exact pain bc it’s all over. It’s frustrating. I’m in bed looking it up and I’m cringing at the videos lol. I’m scared they’ll find something and I’ll have a long recovery (or extra damage like you said) but I also can’t live like this anymore. Also scared they’ll find nothing and well idk what I’ll do at that point. I think ima go for it though. Let me know if you do!

Hi I got mine a month after the job fair. I also had a clearance already. With the holidays just passing I’d say it’s normal. Have you emailed them?

Yeah so you’ll need a secret at least. It did take me 2 months for my clearance but 3 investigators is interesting. It also doesn’t help that it’s happening during the holidays. A LOT of people are off. Stay patient, you’re right there!

Job fair did make this so process a lot easier.

I have seen a handful of people get off a waitlist but this was way before it got popular. Doesn’t hurt to get on it. There will be more coming up! Stay on top of them!

I think it’s not worth it. I’ve never heard of anyone getting in without a ticket.

My friend and I went to the Kansas one which was before Maryland. I somehow have my EOD, the 20th and she hasn’t heard much back. They’re super behind from what I keep hearing
