[QUOTE="dreamer, post: 26364, member: 1697"] I am not at all sure i would call how I lived for that few years as "getting thru the day" - I barely remember it .........the pain from the RA literally drove me out of my mind and there was noone home inside of me except a sobbing groaning who knows what for quite a long while. The possible negative side effects of the medications I am currently on are brutal, life threatening, BUT.......I am again here, and functional. (I was denied pain medications all along, but now do not even need any..LOL.............) Ya somehow manage to get thru what you need to get thru, thats all. I never figured out how there was any other choice, except suicide, but, I was not even able to go thru the motions required to do that. (altho I do vaguely recall begging my husband to kill me more than once) Heres wishing your PT goes great and the knee heals fine!! IIRC cartliage does not show on XRays, and LOL when I did mine, I do not think MRIs were in much use yet? (maybe there were not even MRIs yet?, LOL) [/QUOTE]
