in 3 weeks, my pre-existing period is over and I can finally get the knee looked at again. - groiny Apr 16, 13:21 18
- are you considering a replacement? -- nm - Diva Apr 16, 13:26 17
  - I sure hope not. - groiny Apr 16, 13:29 16

    - I almost think scar tissue buildup is unavoidable. re: meniscus damage - would this be a new injury or a reinjure? -- nm - Diva Apr 16, 13:31 14
      - I do not know, but the inside of the knee is unstable. - groiny Apr 16, 13:33 13
        
        i can't sit for a few hours (i can barely sit for a whole hour). If I don't get up and use the knee at intermittent intervals standing just sucks. -- nm - Diva Apr 16, 13:35 12
        
        did you get a replacement? - groiny Apr 16, 13:37 11
        
        I see my dad on Thrusday. I will ask how his feels. -- nm - Iron Spawn Apr 16, 13:44 4
        
        I am less concerned about how I feel afterwards, and am very concerned with needing 3 more - groiny Apr 16, 13:45 3
        
        hmm...that's to be considered as well. I plan to wait until 60 if I can. -- nm - Diva Apr 16, 13:47 2
        
        I have been trying to stick it out, but I do not think I can anymore. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 16, 13:48 1

        no, I haven't but I know a lot of people who have. They all say their pain is gone. - Diva Apr 16, 13:41
        
        Is this from just wear and tear or was it from the original surgery? - amoxy Apr 16, 13:38 4
        
        I have not really been able to re-injure it, it just never seemed to heal right. - groiny Apr 16, 13:41 3
        
        mel has seen me run. sort of. it's...interesting. -- nm - Diva Apr 16, 13:42 2

Most of my dental work. My insurance is useless and I'm quite angry. - Krusty Apr 16, 13:18 5

  - It's an HSA account and I put what I can afford but by the time I have enough to get anything done it'll be the end of the year. - Krusty Apr 16, 13:45 1
    - Why don't you put in the difference between what you would have paid for the lower deductible insurance and the higher deductible (at least). That's - pmb Apr 16, 13:53
- For the MRI, call up different imaging places and ask for their cash rate. Negotiate beforehand and you may save a good amount. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Apr 16, 13:20 1
  - I'll tell her this. Thanks. - Krusty Apr 16, 13:23
I'm costing the lot of you. [nm] - Mel Profit Apr 16, 13:18 1
