I am having an MRI on my knee tomorrow. I am having some severe pain when I walk and they told me a couple of months ago that I have tendonitis. Well a couple of weeks ago I had a pop in my knee and now I can barely walk. So I went back to the doc on Friday and he ordered an MRI because he thinks I might have a Miniscus Tear. I am hoping they find out what is wrong but am also hoping it doesn't require surgery because my dad has surgery on the 27th, my Grandma on the 28th and I don't want to be in the line. I do need help to be able to walk and don't want to have to rely on pain meds just to be able to do it. I don't like having to use the little carts in Walmart but I am having to right now because it hurts to bad to walk. Have any of you ever had this problem in the knee and what did they do for it?
