I have been having problems with my right knee for a little while so it finally got bad enough that I went to the orthopedic doctor yesterday to see what was going on. They took some xrays and sure enough there is a problem with my knee. My knee cap hinge is not in the middle where it should be, it's sits on thr right side hence the pain. Treatment: wear knee brace all the time, physical therapy oncce a week and if that doesn't work they will have to do surgery. The doctor was hopeful that the physical therapy will work because it hasn't been bothering me for very long. I sure hope it works I really don't want to have surgery!!! I wore the brace all day yesterday and to the zoo and I think it helps. I exercised with it on today with no problems. I really hope I can get it taken care of. Wish me luck!!!

I'm sure you look as stylish as anyone could in that brace! I hope it does the trick!
I'm glad you went! Hope it keeps helping you! Fun chatting with you the other night!
That's not what you are supposed to come back from Spring Break with! I hope it helps and you don't have to have the surgery. Good luck! Lisa
That's hot, but not as hot as my foot brace LOL :) Sorry about the knee, that has to be a bummer :(
