Re: RC: bad knee

[RDCARRIE@aol.com]

Nancy,
Have you tried using some sort of brace on your knee?  I have knee problems 
too - a torn ACL in the left knee, and something wrong with the right one 
(never went to the Dr., but it made a loud POP when it happened 8 yrs ago, 
and now emits a whole chorus of creaking and grinding when I bend it <G>).  I 
used a brace for my right knee for several LD rides a couple of years ago, 
and it helped at lot.  I quit using it due to chafing from the heat and 
humidity, then the dog trashed the brace.  :(  It might be something to look 
into as a temporary solution, while you explore other options.

Good luck,
Dawn in Texas
