Why don't you call the consultants secretary and tell her the problem, they may want to see you if you tell her you think it's really bad x

I'm back to see him on 21st allanah so I'll,hold out last time it was this bad was before I had arthroscopy in February when he found the meniscus tear so I'm thinking it could be that again as the symptoms are the same I know he said when I went in for my injections that he wanted an MRI scan x

Can you push to get the MRI, I had to wait 8 weeks which I wouldn't want anyone else to do

Have you tried a steroid injection in your knee before? Always brings down swelling and pain in my knees when they are inflamed.
