KNEE ARTHRITIS - Injections into the joint :

3rd Synvisc complete - - Posted by cjd72 (cjd72), 22 January 2005

Hi all, had my last Synvisc injections in both knees today. It went off without a hitch for the most part.
The Doc wanted to put a little more Synvisc this time so he numbed me down quite a bit, but still felt a bit of pressure toward the end, it hurt a little but nothing excruciating.

The numbness wore off after about 2-3 hours so I did end up a little achy and stiff, but no major issues. I suspect that I'll be back to normal by morning.

As in the other threads I started I'll try update everyone as time goes on.

Morn'n all.   Well I'm still alive, knees feel better since last night. They are still a little stiff but I know that'll subside as I get moving today. Outside of that no swelling, bruising, anything else to report.

I figure I'll be feeling good enough to be skiing again by tomorrow.

Have a great weekend everybody.

The knees are are feeling great today. No pain at all, not even jumping up out of a squatting position.  

Hope it holds up.
