Ask your doc about it.<br /><br />If your knee is really hurting, you get to the point where you have a weird gait and injure it even more. So, you're right to get something done quick.<br /><br />Lastly, I'm with Janie. I'd tell Charter to go fly a kite.Cherdohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00264612202714933480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3321084510373631678.post-1756390616380517452014-09-07T00:47:04.510-05:002014-09-07T00:47:04.510-05:00Mostly they just hurt as you get them and they had...Mostly they just hurt as you get them and they had me swing my lower leg back and forth to distribute and the pain quickly went away. Unfortunately, the shot only lasted about six weeks, but that was enough to get up and walking on my knee replacement in the other knee. I noticed it did a number on my blood glucose also. It went up quite a bit for a while.<br /><br />.

Then, he submitted and said the injection was not so bad. He even went back about a year later with the same thing, asking for a shot. <br /><br />The doctor surprised me while I was lying on my back with the knee raised and firmly in his grasp. If I had been sitting up and he had asked if I wanted the injection, I would have said, "NO." It actually did not hurt like one would imagine. Actually, it hurt less than most injections.<br /><br />I don't think I have ever had anything in my life frustrate me like internet problems do.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14991571309786149363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3321084510373631678.post-51122509266038883312014-09-06T18:12:53.342-05:002014-09-06T18:12:53.342-05:00Jsnie,

These two women gave me their phone numbers and said to call them for help. I do. They were the ones who got the ball rolling for a month to figure out why my cell and home phones were cut off with payments up to date and found they lost the payment after they took it from my bank account. <br /><br />The charter speed--30 mb per something compared to 6 from ATT is the only reason I am putting up with Charter's shenanigans.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14991571309786149363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3321084510373631678.post-4241161377645660842014-09-06T14:56:31.308-05:002014-09-06T14:56:31.308-05:00An injection under your knee cap sounds horrible, ...An injection under your knee cap sounds horrible, but I hope it helps.<br /><br />I'm having issues with my internet too and it's so frustrating.

The doctor muttered something to the nurse, said he was going to give me a cortisone shot under my kneecap and did it before I could even cringe. I have had cortisone shots in shoulders, too. And, yes, I am desperate for relief. <br /><br />This is getting ridiculous with Charter. I am lured by their speed and by the desire to get rid of ATT. <br /><br />Thanks, I feel a little better, but that is from not sitting up straight at wifi hot spots.

I knew in my head she was in severe pain. But, the truth of the soul-sucking part was not fathomable.
