The pain wakes me up during the night....it radiates behind my knee down my calf and on the front of my thigh. It is worse when I have to bend it, do stairs, sit, etc. Much better standing on it. It feels like it is right behind the knee cap. OUCH!

Am seeing orthopod tomorrow. I hope I didn't tear anything. Do they give cortisone shots into the knee joint???

Don't want to take the pain pills, but it hurts so badly, don't have a choice. I'd be going to the ER FOR pain relief if I didn't already have it to take.

Ok, enough complaining from me...
