NEXT UPDATE: Great news, been off the meds now for 6 months and feel pretty good. Haven't had to do a breathing treatment in almost 4 months.......still have to take my COPD meds but that's a givin for the rest of my life.
Went back and saw my Orthopedic Surgeon Doctor cuz my right knee (had meniscus surgery in 06) was bothering me for a little while. Great News Ken.....your now bone on bone.......oh boy !! I have a new procedure that I do and your a perfect candidate for it. I make a cut about only 3 or 4 inches long, resculpt the ends of the bones, put metal caps on them along with something that takes the place of the meniscus. Probably be on a walker for a week or so, then a cane for same period of time and with rehab during this time I'll be good to go.
