Anyone been diagnosed with CIDP? It's very rare

Has anyone heard of BME (bone marrow edema) ? Also have a bakers cyst that is a solid mass. Not drainable & in need of a TKR … this is all in the same leg.
I’m 61 and just not ready to give in. The pain is the worst I have ever had, And I’ve had a hip replacement and back surgery. Hands down this wins the Prize. Unfortunately I have a Dr. That dose not believe in pain medicine.
I’m hoping to find something out on the 26th after seeing an orthopedic surgeon. Fingers crossed Mayo friends!!! .

Hi @klhilton, sorry to hear about the pain and need of a TKR. I think you might find the following discussions helpful:

-- Baker’s or popliteal cyst: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/bakers-cyst/

Hopefully you will get some answers at your upcoming appointment with an orthopedic surgeon.
