"Mis Diagnosed Knee Injury"

Well I have had a severe knee pain for years after an injury in my teenage years, after many years of complaining, and requesting an MRI scan even when I had private medical insurance all of my requests were ignored or I was referred for an X-ray which showed up not skeletal issues - no surprise since my original issue was ligament related. Suffice to say that after many years of complaining off and on and then being told that the pain is due to Gout I settled for a private MRI scan - where upon it was discovered that 2 of my ligaments in my left kneed are basically compromised and that I now have severe arthritis.

Great diagnosis...

As there is a waiting list in all adjacent surgeries - I have reluctantly opted to stay where I am...
