You should try Replenex Glucosamine Formula from the wellness company that I am partnered with. It replenishes your joints with 1,500mg the most absorbable form you can get. My mother has knee problems also. She was taken ones from the pharmacy but there absorbtion is slow if not at all. She was tired of wasting her money. Now after taking Replenex she has seen her knee issues subside as time has gone on. Glucosamine is nature's oil can..lol.

I am glad you finally found out what was wrong with your knee, But I am sorry that it is so many things wrong with it. They said they couldn't do anything for the things you are suffering for. Is this just one surgeon covering up for another or is a another surgeon not wanting to lean up another surgeons mess? Having to wear a knee brace for the rest of your life isn't going to be any fun at all. I would check out a few other surgeons and try to get their honest opinion on this matter. The only upside to this is now you will be able to sign up for disability,SSI. I hope that you will find some relief from the pain you are in. My mother has a degenerative hip bone that causes her alot of problems and pain. Well good luck and god bless.
