Euflexxa knee injections

[chazz]

Have had them in both knees several times along with cortisone and they have never given me much relief. Ended up with a partial replacement in one 2 years ago and full in the other 3 months ago its starting to feel better, I return to work on Monday. Good luck and hope it works for you.

anybody have a feeling like the legs isn't going to surport the weight of their body. I feel like i'm going to fall all the time, I've had the left knee worked on twice and the right knee once?? not sure what the problem, doctors say it's my back but they don't do anything???

I have been getting those injections for years. They help me a lot...but......when the knee reaches bone on bone it is time to have replaced. My right knee collapsed on me while fishing a tail race 2 years ago and I had to have it replaced. The left one needs it but I get a series of shots about twice a year. It takes about 30 days for me to get some relief after the series of shots.....and usually last 4-6 months. While it has worked well for me I know there are some that see no relief from them. I have never had any reactions from them and they do not hurt if the right person administers the injection. If he knee is really inflamed though the more the injection will hurt. I figure at best I have one more year left before the left knee has to be replaced. Hope they help you out.

Never any bad reactions, just didn't help! 6 months after trying them I had my knee replaced!

I had them done last year after knee surgery for torn cartledge. It took maybe a week after the third injection for it to work. I been good to go since i got the wireless trolling motor with hand held remote and wireless foot pedal. That made fishing fun again.

Moonshine has this effect on me, but shine is a good pain killer.

I blew my left meniscus apart about 15 years ago. Did the ortho to clean things up. I have to be very careful and pay attention when I am on uneven surfaces or my knee slips and sprains the tendons around it. When the knee slips, I am going down. Now, I am having problems with the other knee. No accident this time. Me and the Doc both know it is worn out. But, he insist on draining all the $$$ he can with the therapy route. I would just as soon get it over with if surgery or replacement is required. I don't have the time to go to therapy every time it starts hurting so bad. DP

Got another injection in my right knee yesterday. Been 2 years. X rays shows bone on bone. Terrific.
