    Hello @TheGlen4, welcome to the community!

    I'm afraid I don't have any advice to add about your knee surgery but I'm sure some of our community might be able to offer their experiences soon. Fingers crossed the steroid injection helps get things more comfortable while you wait ☺️

    Hi Bridget and welcome!

    I'm in the North West and chose to go out of area for medical care last year after waiting 2 years for a second opinion (not orthopaedics). I don't know if you have that option in the South West. It proved worthwhile for me as I had several tests in Nuclear Medicine to move things forward and got diagnoses.

    I hope your steroid injection brings much needed relief and take care 😊.
