Hello, I had a fall while working and had X-rays and was told both knees are bone on bone. That part hasn’t bothered me as much as a high grade radial tear which involves the posterior root attachment site of the medial meniscus with associated mild peripheral meniscal displacement. Also have a fracture. This happened May 1st. They found all that out when I told them I needed an MRI. Of course you have to get permission from Workers Comp so everything takes forever. Whatever happens, I want a second opinion. It has been so painful I borrowed neighbors walker because they can’t seem to get me one. My neighbor is over 6’ and i am 5’.
I really am not feeling confident as the clinic is treating me so different than they did for my regular appointments. I am retired but working 25 hrs/week at senior housing where I clean all main areas. Very physical work but enjoy it. I am thinking I should just fake it and go back to work and look for a good doctor. Thanks for listening. Ive had chronic pain since late 80’s so am no stranger to pain.
