You are lucky they are interested in you still, I had an arthroscopy on each knee about twelve years ago (when I was using BUPA) Now I am lucky to see a doctor, who then suggests NSAIDs for the pain. I am 58 and am beaten easily by my 82 year old Father in law when it comes to walking Then I live in Wales so don't expect much, especially as it's NE Wales!!!

My Sis had a half Knee replaced when she was 57 and has suffered ever since, so I am going to carry on limping, crawling, and cycling, which is fine for them.

I was offered another arthroscopy but he was reluctant to do this as it would not make enough difference therefore I am going to have a replacement in March and I am 9 years younger than you but age did not appear to be a factor. Hope you at least get some improvement and hopefully he will find something that will change his mind. Farm
