Re: catching up
Oh Karen that is terrible, i hope it was not on purpose? that is so terrible.
Yes please try these patella straps. here is the link to them on ebay, please look at them, mum has the same problem with her patella going out from under her, she says they are fantastic.
These are the exact ones i bought for mum.

Re: catching up
Mum says now she has no pain, she was at the point of crying every time she walked. so it was pretty bad for her.

Re: catching up
I have to see my treating team on Monday I am going to tell them then. I just don't see the point of being on 7 different medications and still have no improvement. And the weight gain affects my knee injury and its stability.
I just want to try and be medication free. See what happens. If being medicated and still having to be in the mhu every 6 weeks nothing is working.

Hi @hiddenite,
It sounds like your busy week has taken a toll on you! I hope you you be able to get a good nights sleep in tonight!
I think @Jacques makes a good point about going to your doctor about your concerns regarding your medication and wanting to stop taking it. Im sure I dont need to tell you this as you probably already know, but when you come off your medication your symptoms often get worse and it sounds as though you are already having a tough time. All of us on the forums want you to do well and if you want to come off your medication, then that is a decision that will be respected, however you may want to consider doing it with the supervision of your doctor just to ensure your wellbeing and safety.
I hope your keeping warm..it sound quiet cold there!

Re: catching up
OK Karen,
Thank you for at least telling someone, but i don't agree with no improvement, i remember when we first met, you where a mess, you have come so far, i know things are still very tough.
You do have a point though, with the MHU, and i know some medications can make things worse, mum says my SI is so bad now since i started on medication.

Re: catching up
Well your right that is awful and so difficult to manage those symptoms. Mine definitely because worse on medication. I don't see any difference from when I first met you j. I feel things are worse at least I had energy to do things like walking 5-10 km a day.
and no it was not an accident in was intentional

Re: catching up
Yes i do understand Karen, i remember when we first met, their is no way you would have bee nable to buy a house and deal with men, rmemeber when your truck was run into, you struggled just to go to a smash repair, it took you weeks to get the courage to get a quote.
It is your choice Karen, and i will support you no matter what, i just don't want to lose you, you are too special to me.
OMG Karen that is terrible, i can't believe he could treat you in such a way, i so wish i could be their to hug you, show you kindness and caring you so deserve, i just hope you can feel some of the friendship we have throug hthis forum, i know sometimes it feel impersonal, because we are not face to face, but you deserve so much kindness, you are such a wonderful woman Karen, you deserved so much better from people around you.

Re: catching up
Karen i am so sorry if i have brought up some bad memories, with the knee thing, i can't believe what you have had to endure in your marriage, it is just so terrible, that is not what a marriage should be like and is not how men should conduct themselves.
Karen from what you have said to me he was a monster, not a man.
I am so glad you are alive, i hope one day you can be happy, and live a happy life, without the memory of him.
