Symptoms, was Re: A dumb question

[Guest guest]

I ws diagnosed with CP in 1993 by surgery. The

(military)Dr. said that there was nothing that could be

done.<br>My symptoms:I always have an aching burn. On bad

days it is a very sharp shooting pain radiating from

the knee up and down the leg. I have a permanent

bruise on the side of my knee. When walking it feels

like I'm walking on gravel. When it becomes " inflamed "

it swells and feels like I'm moving it through

syrup.<br>I hope this helps.<br>BTW I have an appointment

with an ortho. surgeon next week, wish me

luck.<br>Bill
