Throw the stick!!!!
Thread Starter
There is a structure in front of the joint called the anterior fat pad. The anterior approach to the knee (the way they used to inject you) has a higher risk of putting the medicine in the fat pad. That hurts like a sonnofa*****. It also completely wastes the Synvisc since it has to be IN the joint. The suprapatellar approach gives a better chance of hitting the joint space, and with US guidance is 100% accurate.

Again, for many patients like myself, this is an initial adverse reaction. It's rather dramatic, but after it calms down, my knee lets me get on a bicycle within a week, feels MUCH better within a couple of weeks and a couple of months later it feels like my normal knee, and stays that way for the better part of a YEAR.
As for the shots, it's like all injections. Sometimes they don't hurt at all, sometimes they hurt like hell, really depends on how that particular needle hits your nerve. Either way, even if it's painful, it's 3 seconds of pain. Even a wussy like Pcad can handle that.

Big Bang is a very funny show, but for me number 2 would be How I met your mother. 2 and Half has gone down hill without Charlie. And Seinfeld, you hit the nail on the head with your comment.

I gotta get up to Seattle this weekend dunno if I'm up for the triple metric, though. Probably take me a good 10 hours to get there. Blue Angels fly @ 1:40 pm so I gotta be in the saddle by 3:40 am ... hoooo boy.
