Patella Tendonitis/Tendonosis

[vickster]

I still don't know what I've had/got
My only advice to anyone is to insist on something being done. I've got lifetime problems thanks to a locum GP that didn't give a shoot.
When I was treated it was to repair the damage done by following his advice of 'come back in 4 weeks', said 3 times over.

What's wrong with your knee?

It's both of them. I tore both cruciate ligaments.
GP just told me to rest and come back in a month.
By the time he'd told me to do that 3 times as I couldn't bend my knees without pain the oblique muscles were wasted so I had tracking problems and patellar bursitis.
On top of that I was told a year later I've probably worn the cartilage from my kneecaps.
I get bursitis flare ups regularly.

Apart from that I'm perky as pinky's mate
