    I'm located in the Washington DC-MD-VA Metro Area.

    Doc explained he had to fet authorization from insurance and explained it will be weekly injections for 3 weeks. I'm nervous as heck about possible pain; however, I have to try for possible relief. PAIN IS SO UNBEARABLE AND I'M TIRED OF HOBBLING AND LIMPING.

    I will definitely keep you posted. Take care. Departing work now to head for Water aerobics.

    God bless,

    Hi Diana, congrats!!
    I, too, am walking bone on bone in right knee and it has been extremely painful.

    I'm do to get my first synvisc injection tomorrow. I am praying this works!! This pain has been unbearable since February 2017.

    I had surgery May 30th. I believe I'm down about 45lbs. The weight loss appears to be slower than anticipated; however, I'm happy the weight is coming off regardless. I started at 300 lbs and last weigh in was 271 lbs. I have doc appt next week.

    I started Water aerobics a few weeks ago and have been enjoying.

    I totally understand. I have a torn meniscus and arthritis in right knee, and it's been very pain to walk. Already had 8 physical therapy sessions. I'm praying my knee will feel better as the weight comes off.

    Then, BFF of 40+ years had a brain aneurysm Saturday, spice been back/forth to hospital. Praise God she's making progress. So, I'm walking more than ever through the pain. Both ankles were swollen when I got home last night. GOD IS STILL AWESOME THROUGH IT ALL.

    Just listen to doc and you will be fine. Praying for your success. Hang in there.

    So sorry to hear and know that you're going through this alone.

    Your husband is wrong in every way!! He made a vow to you and before God to stand by your side, and he deserted you in your time of need. Easily said than done, but you're probably better off without him if he can up and leave like that without giving it a second thought. HAVING THIS SURGERY IS NOT THE WORST THING IN THE WORLD. YOU ARE MAKING AN ATTEMPT TO IMPROVE YOUR QUALITY OF LIFE.

    I am praying for your strength and peace of mind. You will get through this.

    Much love! ~TeResa
