Yikes, so far Synvisc comments are 100% negative. I guess I'll rethink that one! My arthritis doctor swears by Cortisone shots and Synvisc. The surgeon thinks I need arthoscopy surgery, no mention yet of a knee replacement. Although I smell one coming down the road.
I haven't tried anti-inflammatories yet, perhaps I should be going that route. I just hate to take drugs .. but I guess as we age, it is inevitable. My doctor has been muttering about my cholesterol levels.
I guess we should all be grateful for every extra day we have on this planet. And especially for discovering The Villages for our golden years. After all, a long life hasn't been promised to any of us.
