I just clicked over to your blog and read...Hi Jana! I just clicked over to your blog and read about all of your knee problems! Oh I am so sorry for all you have been through. It sounds like it has been frustration upon frustration. Not having answers is so very difficult, especially when you are in pain!<br /><br />I was having problems with my knee cap being out of place. I think my dr. called it patellar mal-tracking. It felt like my knee cap would catch on something anytime I bent it. I did PT for about 6 weeks before we scheduled scope surgery. The dr. thought he would find torn cartilage that my knee cap was catching on, but instead he found what's called a plica. It was basically a thick band of connective tissue that had shifted and was in between my knee cap and my knee. He removed it and also 2 other plicas that were to the side. (Plicas are an irregularity that grow in some people's knees but not others... I guess. And they don't show up on MRI's). Recovery has been slow but overall the surgery was really not too bad! I hope this helps, and I hope you find answers soon!<br /><br />Sorry for this UBER long comment on your blog... if you want to ask me any more Q's or just chat about knees (lol) you can totally email me at amyn2217 (at) gmail.com, I would love to hear from you Jana!! :)<br />Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13660185655369301982noreply@blogger.com
