Carrie - So sorry about your injections. It sounds like when I had the Injections in my knee for my arthritis! The Cortisone did not work at all. So, she did the gel injections, which are suppose to be great (so they say), but for me they did not work either. I ended up having a Partial Knee Replacement a year and a half ago. What a wonderful surgery that turned out to be! I am in no pain at all, and because I did not have to have the full knee replacement done, I was walking without a walker or cane in about a week.
I am sorry you have to wait a full month to get more information on what can be done! I'll be praying for you!
