Journal Entry for July 22, 2008 Mood
Tuesday, July 22, 2008

Well; I saw the Orthopedist today; and he's going to send me for an MRI.  Unfortunately I have to wait for my insurance company to approve the MRI before I can get it.  He also said that it could be arthritis; which I really can't understand.  I thought that arthritis would affect both knees----not just one.  But I'll have to wait until I have the MRI done and get the results back before I find out for sure.  In the mean time; I'm icing my right knee every day for about 20min. per day.  That's about all I can do right now.

 

On my weight; I haven't lost any more, but I haven't gained any either.  I guess that could be taken either way.

    Hmmm very interesting I have a lot of pain in both knees, no swelling though. I walk a bit and have taken to wearing dark glasses as the pain brings tears to my eyes. Still awaiting a diagnosis back to the new endo 30 July to discuss results. She also checked for thyroid and adrenal antibodies, so hopefully I will get a diagnosis and treatment. Take care xx
