Not sure where to start. Work up with lower back pain 10 years ago. No change. I have seen many chiropractors over the years. No change. Only hurts when mildly when I hit the sweet spot bending over.

Woke up 5 years ago with both quads hurting. two years later went to orthopedic doctor. Cortizone and hyaluronic acid. Pain moved to Medial knee joint. A years later went to sports med doctor. Cortizone and hyaluronic acid then stem cell and platelet injections followed by two other platelet injections. No change. That was a years ago. Really convinced that it is not OA but something like an autoimmune thing. Primary doctor ran many test. MRA,MRI. I guess my question is it common to just wake up and have OA in both knees with no change in pain for years? I would assume it would just appear in 1 knee first and gradually get worse or better. Not come on strong in both knees at same time.
