    Default Ima victim of managed healthcare...


    I live off cortisone. Yesterday I went to get my fixes.. I got a shot in the knee and a shot in the wrist (this shot smarts). I couldn't get one in my shoulder. Have to go back in a month (according to new guidelines) for the other shot. Hello, my shoulder hurts now!!!

    I have arthritis in my left knee bad, hurts and I limp all the time, and I have had 2 shots of cortisone in it which helped a great deal with the pain but not with movement. My regular doctor told me I could only have 4 total shots before it started to harm my knee so no more after 4. My granddaughter is a nurse at the pain clinic, same hospital as my regular doc, and she told me to come up there and check with the pain doctor which I did and he gave me 3 shots of Orthovisc at the same time which has help a great deal with movement but does nothing for the pain. I wonder if I can get the other 2 cortisone shots? Getting old ain't for sissies.
