Knees

A myRAteam Member asked a question 💭
Katy, TX

I’ve been having major pain in one of my knees. It’s been about a month. My RA doc ordered X-rays. I see him on Monday so will get results hopefully.
I’ve had knee arthroscopes done in both knee. My right is worst but the problem is my left knee. I don’t feel like it’s bone on bone but even when I lay down, my knee throbs. I’m wondering if anyone else has had this issue.

That’s awesome Kathy….I had knee replacement a year ago but my knee is partially numb and have back of knee and side muscle pain…..I was in remission for 5 glorious months but I’m “back at it” for 6 weeks now plus I have tremendous exhaustion…..So happy to hear that their is HOPE out there👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Yes & I had both of my knees replaced in 2015. I always had inflamation prior to that. When knees are replaced now muscles & tendons aren’t cut. Recovery was very fast & my ra went into remission for 2 1/2 years. I am pretty much pain free.
