Wife's replacement knee has gone sour.
Posted , 6 users are following.
Three years ago my wife had her knee totally replaced. She had good motion and pain-free service for about a year. Then she developed pain and the doctor xrayed and said that she had formed scar tissue within the incision - it was visible as a darkened spot on the xray. She has been using an anagelsic cream for about a year but the pain is very severe at times. What is a solution? We have tried massage etc.

I'm sorry to hear of your wife's Parkinson's. My wife's brother-in-law has Parkinson and had medication problems as well. He also had the DBS which served him rather well for 6-7 years during which time his medications were reduced and in some cases suspended.

BDS is great for the ones it helps. We have seen some outstanding cases. Hers isnt the garden variety that even is considered. Mainly because of the lack of tremors and even though she moves slowly she isstill mobile

Well, its getting close to 1.a.m. and I have to meet friends for breakfast @ 8 so going b to call it a night. I normally fix breakfast for my wife but Thursdays she has cold cereal so I can have a chance to get out and solve the worlds problems. This morning we have a bigger job than usual with the stock market hit and the supposed hydrogen bomb of N. Korea. My oldest son was CEO of joint venture in so. Korea for 5 years and I spent some time over there during that time so I guess that will mean I'll be the resident authority to lead th e discussion. Huge responsibility but someone has to do it. May be a 3 cup of coffee morning instead of the usual 2.
