I'M an Ortho Doc.

First heard about synvisc when released in Aug.
first injected the drug in Oct.

My partner injected my knee in Nov.
The drug works but I can't tell you for how long,
the literature says it should work for about six months.

I have now injected about fifteen people and
have only one who is disapointed with the result,
most think it is terrific.

I have ownedthe stock since it took the pain and
swelling out of my knee.

The only problem I have now is that I can't get
the stuff when I order it, it's on back order!

I ordered enough for ten more people and
only get enough for three.

It's time to tune up the production line.
Someone under estimated the demand.

I may need it again sometime and what if I cant get it!
