I went in for a cortisone shot to my left knee but my BP was high that day so the Doctor couldn't do it, I appreciate the alternative suggestions. I got a referral for Physical Therapy, they had also x-rayed my knee and she explained what was going on, she said I was a candidate for a knee replacement. I said, Hmm, no I just got finished anti cancer infusions and surgery 6 months ago, so what else you got? She talked of another type of pain med injection, but she needed to check on the ingredients since I have many sensitivities. She gave me other ideas to help support that knee. All in all it was a positive experience. Nice nurses in there too. I felt very well taken care of, didn't wait long either, mere minutes.
