KNEE ARTHRITIS - Injections into the joint :

First visit to doctor after injections... - - Posted by zelda (zelda), 5 December 2003

My rheumatologist said to return "as needed".  She is so cool and nice!  She told me some exercises for my tendinitis.  Said I could have more Synvisc injections in my knee in 6 months - hope they last that long.  She also said the stiffness and soreness is pretty normal and she is happy I got relief from the pain!

Glad for you that injections are working for you and that you are in less pain. I read in another posting that Rheumatologist  have helped them through knee problems. Yours sounds great and knows her job well. Nick.
