gotta love that suction feeling at the back of the kneecap don't you? I hated it!
jim as you know today they used the microscopic surgery that doesnt disable you as long.the old school way leaves a scare about 6 inches long where they open the knee joint up and slice out the entire carterige
Yuppers. Best description I can give is having ground glass in your joint. My gout appears not in my big toe as in most, but in the top of my foot. Luckily I haven't had a bad flare up in over 10 years.
Right now I need to get my right shoulder checked. I took a good fall the week before Turkey Day, pain can be unbearable at times, especially trying to raise my arm above shoulder height. It feels like something is catching in there, wil pop at times. About a 50-50 chance it will feel better after the pop, or excrutiating pain for several hours.

Yep, had that done to my elbow and both knees: Suck out the fluid and inject steroid through the same needle.
