Experiences with

Arthroscopy

Hi, this is my first post in this forum, I used to be a Judo coach, but after a right knee arthroscopy 7 years ago and a left shoulder acromioclavicular stabilisation with lockdown about 5 years ago i was forced into retirement.

Hello, I am due to have a ceramic hip replacement to my right hip next week, and if that is successful, I will have my left hip replaced in the coming months also. Has anyone else had this done? Would be interested to hear how you feel about it and how your recovery was/is. I am 38 and have been

Six years ago I had an arthroscopy on my left knee. It occasionally flares up but on the whole is ok but I do find my left hip can be painful at times. I have lost over a stone in weight on my diet but am now starting a fitness journey.

But all my physical tests colonoscopy, arthroscopy?,ct scan, ovarian scans all clear?. I'm awaiting epedeemiologist and rheumatologist appointments now and having a dexa scan tomorrow morning. Any ideas anyone as to low sats?? Is it a lupus thing?

It’s also the knee they did the arthroscopy on back on Feb 16th this year. It feels like sharp pains in there and especially if I try to walk without my crutches. Any advice greatly appreciated.

Hi everyone out there hope we’re all keeping safe just a quick question I’m on the waiting list at Leeds Nuffield for elbow arthroscopy saw my lovely consultant on 17 th March any ideas as to when it could be ???? In sooooo much pain :(

Before the lock down he performed an arthroscopy to see the condition my leg was in and to remove the screw from my ACL reconstruction on the hope I could receive a partial knee replacement but as the lock down has happened the consultation for the next steps was cancelled.

I had an arthroscopy on my left shoulder 4 weeks ago. I’m beginning to wish I hadn’t. My Rheumotoid has flared up and have been in constant pain from my shoulders to the soles of my feet. The simplest tasks cause me great pain. I inject Methotrexate weekly and Cosentyx monthly.

I had a knee arthroscopy on Monday. What have people’s experiences been with this procedure?

I had a wrist arthroscopy yesterday and they filed down some cartilage do to my wrist healing wrong from a 4-year-old break. I am in a lot of pain even with 30/500 co-codamol Is this normal

I'm scheduled for surgery(arthroscopy) in a week and I'm so scared. The last time I had arthroscopy with general anesthesia was when my COPD came into full blown existence(I had a problem with going up hill but otherwise not SOB-then after 2 blocks winded).

I’ve always had dodgy knees, had an arthroscopy on one about 12 years ago and was told I had arthritis of an 80 year old ! Mmmm I didn’t like news but I knew I had to keep them strong.

No problems at all since the A-Flutter last August then the A-Fib in September triggered by the catheter ablation. That will teach me, woke up about 2.00am feeling odd, eventually got the Kardia out about 6.00 am and sure enough 160 bpm and in Fibrillation. So have tried for the first time the 200 mg

I had a right knee arthroscopy back in November accompanied by a Baker’s cyst which took a long time to clear up. However I have started over and am now at W5R1 and it’s all going well.

No arthroscopy for ankle & no miniscus repair in knee. Get a brace but procedures too risky at this time he said. Very direct and serious but cute - I'd take him fishing. Lol Hubby liked him too. We are sad, but I've learned to be a warrior.

I was scheduled for ankle arthroscopy yesterday &miniscus for knee in a few weeks but he said "No" to any surgeries for extended time. I have suspected glaucoma & now I'm taking pred that can cause glaucoma. Pred & antibiotics so bad for belly.

I have got an extremely sore and swollen knee,as previously mentioned.Two visits to the doctor have resulted in one x Ray ...”Normal” and a referral to the muscular clinic for an Arthroscopy (I don’t think this is a good idea but never mind).Are knees ever involved in PMR or is this a separate problem

I was also needing an arthroscopy which the anaesthetist cancelled a couple of times because my TSH was not 'in range' (it was suppressed, which I feel ok with). So, they messed around with my meds until they got the TSH to where they could do the operation (it was 5 - (0.27- 4.20).

He has to stay on apixiban for another 5 weeks and has already had one arthroscopy to remove the blood, but 10 days later it looks as though it's filling up again.

Both the doctor and surgeon suggest hip arthroscopy surgery. Here’s the kicker; although the mri did show the RIGHT hip as slightly inflamed, it was not the hip that was giving me the sudden pain. Within just 48 hours that hip is just as sore and weak as the left hip was!
