hi,
thank-you for the brief history of you.
as you mentioned you are on medication, why don't you try doing physical therapy as it will help you to get strength of the muscles holding the knee joint. Also by using the therapeutic ultrasound therapy and TENS therapy will help reduce the pain.
usually 99% patient receives a combination of physcial therapy and medicines for the optimum results.
