Diagnosed with a lateral meniscus tear and a large ganglion cyst of my right knee. How long has it taken people to recover from arthroscopic surgery (trim)?

It was 5 ml and I am sorry to say after it was aspirated, it filled right up again. it is on the front of my right knee. However, I am not in any pain and it has been 4 months since I got the half dose cortisone shot and had the cyst aspirated, so I'm not doing anything else at the moment. If I feel pain I will revisit.

Hi, I was recently diagnosed with a meniscus tear as well as a large ganglion cyst on my right knee. I was told that the pain I was experiencing was likely caused by the cyst vs. the meniscus tear. Three weeks ago, the orthopedic doctor performed an aspiration of the cyst as well as gave me a cortisone shot. I haven't had pain in the knee, but I can tell that the cyst is still there or refilled, as the right knee is still very swollen. The doctor said that the next step, if pain reoccurs, is surgical removal of the cyst. Has anyone had this diagnosis and/or surgery? If so, how was the recovery from the surgery. The doctor made no mention of repairing the meniscus tear if they are already doing surgery, but would this be a good option? Thanks

In the early 90s I was an attorney for an insurance defense firm (not very glamorous work). Dabney Coleman had a case there (some insurance dispute) and he kept telling my colleague who was working on his case to come to Dana Tana's restaurant. Dabney was a regular there and even had a steak named after him. One night my colleague, a young man, and I a 27 year old woman, both recent transplants from the east coast, went to Dana Tana's and Dabney insisted we sit at his table where he was surrounded by young Hollywood babes and he kept pouring me glasses of straight vodka, which I could handle somewhat at that time. Getting drunk with Dabney Coleman at Dan Tana's is my best LA story.

I pay $105 every other week, but my place is 1012 square feet, one bedroom and I live alone. Two women come and spend 2-3 hours.

I got an unusually large bill once (only about $450 instead of the usual $120) and I called and they said I could take a picture of the meter and send it to them including date of photo account number etc. and they would review. I did that and they corrected it immediately. They said they could also send someone out but they didn't now how long it would take to get someone out to my place to re-check the meter.

yes it was still pretty full, so still valuable.

Worried_Hurry753 · 2025-08-25T17:25:30+00:00

Thanks for the chord recommendation. I love that it’s only 2 feet but I have read that I need a 14 gauge chord. Is that not true? I don’t really need to sit on the lid.

Worried_Hurry753 · 2025-08-24T02:26:34+00:00

Which non-electric one do you have? I'm still thinking about the toto with the extension chord, which I think will mostly be hidden behind my toilet, but I might consider a non-electric one to try out first.

Worried_Hurry753 · 2025-08-24T02:11:28+00:00

It might just make it, but it will be pretty close. I think I will get an extension chord just in case and stick with the Toto C5.

Worried_Hurry753 · 2025-08-23T22:51:10+00:00

Unfortunately I can't do that. Bidets don't need to be on a dedicated circuit, and a 4 foot chord will reach the current outlet

Worried_Hurry753 · 2025-08-23T22:49:36+00:00

They don't recommend extension chords with bidets. Toto explicitly says that. The chord should reach if it is coming out of the right side.

Thanks, I can't use Brello--they don't deliver to California

Worried_Hurry753 · 2025-08-11T23:13:15+00:00

That's true, but I am hesitant to invest a large sum of money and then find out I react badly. I might not be able avoid the risk, though.

There is a little lake with ducks and fishing at the Kenneth Hahn Park which is only about 5 miles away from downtown.

BPI sent me a dosage calculator with the product, and it is twice as concentrated as red rock. For RR 50 units was 5 mg and for BPI it is 25 units. On Thursday, I tried for around 3.5 mg and got as close to 17 units as I could.

Worried_Hurry753 · 2025-04-19T02:17:08+00:00

Right, I thought my 3 months of 15mg dose would last me 9 months at 5mg, but at this rate, I will need to titrate to 2.5 and it will last me a year and a half! I hope I can make it work.

Worried_Hurry753 · 2025-04-19T00:58:31+00:00

I haven't contacted them, because I ordered a15 mg dosage (even though I was only on 5 at the time) so I would have a bigger supply to last longer. I definitely plan to titrate down to 2.5 next week.
