I'm sorry to here that your having a bad time of it. I don't know you but I know what bad luck feels like. Just when I thought things couldn't get any worse, I lost my purse today. Yet I have friends who always come up smelling of roses!

I don't know the first thing about knee injuries but I know my mum suffers from (can't spell this) siatica spinal problems and we always make her a hot water bottle to put on it or she has to do little excercises to ease them off. I'm really sorry I'm rubbish at this lol.

Is there no one who could take you to the hospital if it gets that bad though?

First of all, rofl at the title of the post! Sorry, but I haven't heard that one in a while!
Contact a local church. They usually have funds to help with stuff like that. Might even hook you up with a ride if you need it. They have tons of resources. You have to try something, right?

Please go to the er, you don't have to pay right away and can send in five dollars a month. You've got to be able to walk. I was wheelchair bound for a time with torn meniscus in both knees, awful pain but I just had to give them a few months to heal. I am a slow healer and I was much fatter then than I am now.

Thanks all, don't mean to be a drag, will get through this somehow. Hard as hell for me to ask anyone for help, although I'm always there for anyone else. Goes to self-esteem, I guess.
