| first synvisc injections today!
Hi everyone!! I just wanted to let you all know that about an hour ago, I had my first of three synvisc injections into my knees..and I didnt think it was too bad..My doc put alot of lidocaine first, drained one knee of some fluid and then did the synvisc..so far so good..no swelling or soreness yet!!
she did tell me that it takes about a month after the last injection to get relief..boy I cant wait for June!!
Well for all my friends that are waiting on getting the shots, all I can say is...the first one, very doable!! Oh and by the way...it is definately not a nine foot needle!!!
hugs to all,
and again thanks for all the support,
cj.
