I have not been scoped for the knee either but other procedures for another joint. I can relate to your concerns and fears. It is good you are being proactive about it though as sometimes we can do more damage over time than had it not been looked at in the first place; let alone in dealing with the discomfort that could be settled by getting this done. With family and friends having their knees scoped, it is amazing what can be done now, great results. Sending good wishes your way and for a speedy recovery. Hang in there this week with hugs meanwhile.
