100984 - 9. It may be small comfort to know that I was told 12 years ago on
100985 - 000124, that I would need knee replacement surgery in 5 years
100986 - (see line 221041. ref SDS 1 HU5O
100988 - ..
100989 - 10. At that time, my doctor said he had similar knee pain from
100990 - tennis and running, and that he experienced relief using
100991 - Glucosamine Chondroitin. I tried this, but could not swallow
100992 - the pills due to an esophageal issue. About 4 years later on
100993 - 040529, Millie found liquid Glucosamine Chondroitin at Costco,
100994 - and this helped both of us (see line 110402. ref SDS 2 MN9P

101006 - ref SDS 4 LT4S...] on success relieving knee and other joint
101007 - pain using Glucosamine Chondroitin.
101009 - ..
101010 - 12. If Doctor Lawler is correct that you have only "frayed"
101011 - cartilage, then your knee pain should be similarly relieved
101012 - with Glucosamine Chondroitin [...recommended previously to
101013 - Robin in a letter on 120222 1832. ref SDS 4 LT4S; medication
101014 - was ordered for Robin from Costco on 120516 1048. ref SDS 6
101015 - E99F; Robin's letter on 120601, indicated she was taking
101016 - Glucosamine Chondroitin, ref SDS 7 HX9I...]. If the finding of
101017 - "tears" in the MRI report is correct, then affirmative medical
101018 - care is required to recover from complications caused by knee

101022 - 13. Your case contrasts sharply with my knee problems.

101025 - 14. I suffered very serious knee injury in 1974 falling 40 feet to
101026 - a concrete surface. Fortune smiled that day dodging death,
101027 - surviving with only a severely injured left knee. After
101028 - surgery, and once adhesions were manually broken with a second
101029 - medical procedure 6 weeks later, I had no further pain of any
101030 - kind for nearly 15 years running and playing tennis. Exercise
101031 - finally caused problems addressed with a second surgery in
101032 - 1988, and then again there was no further pain for over 10
101033 - years.
101035 - ..
101036 - 15. Your history of continuing pain 3 - 4 months after surgery on
101037 - 120322, requires close scrutiny for diagnosis and resolution of
101038 - complications caused by surgery.
101040 - ..
101041 - 16. Please send me a copy of the letter to Lawler's office
101042 - requesting your medical chart.
