Today my head is filled with the song Bye Bye Love but my version is Bye Bye Right Knee. After holding me up and behaving itself after all these years the right knee is ready to retire, That leaves me with a problem However, I have managed to get around, up and down, gotten my own food and drink, and basically since my work is done by sitting on a chair things are manageable, I am going to ask for an ace bandage downstairs since that might help keeping it tighter. When I sit and sleep no pain so lucky when I wake up and have to get out of bed I remember to do it slowly, Time will tell what I decide but first to make myself feel better i am waiting for my Party Day or Grocery Ordering Day next Saturday.

I hope the Ace bandage helps... You'll still need to have a doctor look at it, though. Good luck!

Join the rotten knee club! Mine doesn't hurt but it currently doesn't seem super stable, or maybe it is my muscles..

@RasmaSandra I wore a knee brace today, but I felt perfectly fine and walked around for at least an hour or two.

I'm sorry your knee is acting up. I get anxious when my left knee acts up because I know I need a knee replacement. I cannot manage on my own. When I had my knee and hip done, my husband was still alive and helped me. I hope you will see a doctor if it gets worse. Do you have medical insurance?

I hope it isn't quite ready to retire. Knees are strange, they seem to often go out or start hurting when you least expect it.

I am just sorry it hurts to walk and get around. Knee/leg problems are just not fun at all.

Could be age related but a thorough check up is called for

@kaylachan it only hurts when I move not when sitting or laying down, So I pace myself and can do everything for myself just moving slowly,

I hope you can get it to respond to simple things like wrapping it, aspirin, and ice.

@FourWalls there is no pain when I sit and lay down, Just gotta be careful walking so I will ask my friends downstairs if they have an ace bandage or I'll have to order one,

@Juliaacv it does not hurt it just does not work right, As long as I can handle it I will and then decide what to do.
