No neither Pete nor I have either health issue but I really feel for you. Sounds very painful.

Thinking of you. Xxx💖

It certainly is Looseloafers. Hope things improve a little at least. Xx

I don't have either of those, but my knees quite often give way unexpectedly for no reason that I'm aware of. It can be awkward if I'm carrying anything as it makes me clutch for support with disastrous results.

Are you able to do any strengthening exercises to help work your leg muscles? There are some seated ones you can do with an exercise band, like a giant stretchy piece of broken rubber band.
