James - <<I have a pretty bad cold this week.............>> Everybody on this thread is a wise guy!<g> Ok - just for you ..... ====================================================== Posted by Chuck Williamson on January 30, 1998 at 15:24:11: In Reply to: No cartilage - bone to bone posted by Cheryl on January 26, 1998 at 01:38:52: Hi, my wife has the same problem but with arthritis. She is going in for a shot of Synvisc next Monday. It is a series of three shots over a two week period in the knee joint. It is a synovial fluid that acts as a shock absorber between the bones. It is supposed to last at least six months. It is not a cure, just a treatment. ====================================================== And PLEASE note - Sir: (a) Nobody's bitchin about the cost. (b) Per the patient - it lasts 6 months. (c) Knows how to spell Synvisc. And its not a cure. (d) Nobody's asking about ABC or XYZ (cpt) codes. And so on .... boring!<G> Regards, John
