Loss of strength in knee.
My right knee turns to rubber and I would fall if I didn't have something to hang onto. Lasts about a minute. No pain before, during or after. Happens about once/day.
Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Bones, Joints & Muscles Support Group.
davidsage, Is your knee "buckling?" If so, please see an orthopedic doctor and perhaps he will recommend a knee brace or even something as simple as the compression sleeve for the knee.
You may have a worn down knee and it is giving away or buckling on you without pain. You do not want to fall.
Praying for you. Blessings....

You may want to get an ultrasound or MRI of your knee and an EMG/nerve conduction study if lower limbs to check neuromuscular health. Not sure if you have certain movements that pinch nerves or blood vessels. You may also want to see a vascular/vein specialist depending on what is found. Lastly, I would have my lumbar spine checked if nothing else is found.
My knees would give out at the muscles above and below the knee.
Anis one ankle muscle would give out.
Seeing sports med and Peronist next week
I would be interested in what they say.
Thank you.
Have been on Letrozole for 2/ 1/4 yrs. Now off for 3 months.
Also on Eliquis which has a very rare effect of muscle loss.
Seeing Sports Med and vascular doctors next week.
