I start my right knee tomorrow with Supartz. There will be five shots.

What really worries me is my left knee. I got a cortisone shot on the 14th
of July and it doesn't even feel like I did. My rheumy says that she
doesn't think a TKR will work because of the condition of the knee cap. I
don't want to feel this way for the rest of my life! Or until they get a
good knee cap replacement. She says it's all torn up from OA. Right now,
I've got my gall stones to worry about so will limp along on the left knee
(foot, of course, guys) until the gall stones are taken care of. I see the
surgeon
on Friday, so we will see what happens after that.

If Supartz is anything like Hyalgen, it will be a cake walk. I sure hope it
works wonders for you. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for ya! And, good
luck with the surgeon. Keep us posted.

Thanks for the good wishes, Di. This is my third series of Supartz, I
think. Anyhow, it's not new to me, so I know how my body usually reacts.
It usually is a cake walk for me, too. Although, I remember somebody who
was a bit concerned before they got the first shot. I wonder who that was.

I definitely let everybody know what results from the visit to the surgeon
tomorrow morning. Thanks for being concerned.

I'll be thinking very postively for a good outcome. You must really be in a lot
of pain right now and discouraged. Prayer sent up too. I remember all I went
through before my own TKR. Blessings. Nanny
