Osteoarthritis. Taken Hyaluronic Acid Injections With Minimal Relief. Arthroscopic Medial Menisectomy Done. What Are The Symptoms Of MS?
The beginning of my troubles started April 2011 when I had a arthroscopic L medial meniscetomy repair. I have not been the same since. I have been miserable and uncomfortable with both knees, esp. the L. about 4 months ago, an osteopath took e-rays and showed me that I have severe osteoarthritis and DJD in both knees; the L lateral being the most painful. He calls it a "windswept deformity". I have recently had three injections of hyaluronic acid (2 shots in each knee) SYNVISC ONE and I have felt only minimal relief. It has been nearly a month after the final shots. Also, I forgot to mention I have Baker's cysts in the popliteal region of left knee making it nearly impossible to bend my knee more that 15-20 degrees. I now have also developed a swollen and puffy L ankle that is painful to twist or flex.
So, with all that stuff going on and with my whole body aching and sore, I wonder if something more is going on with me. What are the symptoms of MS?
