Hello @kneeproblem. I moved your new discussion and combined it with your previous one from September 8th with the same title. I would like to invite @leh09, @progolfer, and @kibe75 to this discussion as they have all discussed having partial knee replacements in the past as well. I had to undergo two manipulations myself following my total knee replacement in 2006, they were not fun at all. I can understand being nervous for your appointment. Do you think it is possible that you may need a total knee replacement? I am not a medical professional and cannot offer a diagnosis, but it sounds like there is other structural damage around your knee joint. You mentioned you are going in to see your physician soon, do you mind sharing what concerns you the most?

I am nervous about having to go thru all this pain and down time again and starting to heal again I haven't been able to enjoy my summer at all and afraid to go into the winter like this and what if it fails again. Plus I am mor sure if I trust my surgeon this time

The pain has been unbearable and my doctor would not listen to me at all about what I am going thru he just wanted to keep ordering pain pills and tell me to wait it out finally HE ordered bone scan

I was so afraid of it being structural damage can I tell my surgeon I want a second opinion
