jaymdee Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Just been to doctors and told that I've 99% probably chipped the cartilidge (sp?) in my left knee. Need to go back monday, and then get referred to the hospital to have it sorted J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Should be sorted easy enough with Keyhole, I busted both of my knees and now have no cartilidge. Simple op but recovery can take a few weeks. Best of luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerry Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Sorry to hear that J... That's what mine turned out to be (remember my Scottish limp) ! torn cartlidge & worn & knackered joints. Had an MRI and saw the doc on Monday, just waiting for dates, need two ops but can put one off until it's worse ! Says I should be back training within 6 weeks though... brilliant. Hope you get yours sorted soon mate. Cheers G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Hope it's not too serious mate. I'm due to have my 4th arthroscopy in as many years to remove floating cartilage from my dodgy knee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaymdee Posted September 25, 2006 Author Share Posted September 25, 2006 Ouch, sounds nasty! Just got back from another visit. being referred to a consultant at the Hospital, an MRI and a physio. May take a month to see anyone though!! Tnhing is though... Everyone has asked me if I've got private health insurance. What the f**k do I pay £500 National Insurance for every month?
