--I been to Doc again.Yes he said arthrocopy but also said that
because of other health promblems he would try to see if pain would
stop on med and hold on from surgery. But it is going on 2 months
and it has not even with shot he gave me last week. I am on alot of
med for aurthritis and also on 9 advil a day so he did'nt give me no
more but pain killer..and that dont help at night.
