So, after many months of terrible pain and disability in all my joints, specially in neck and knees, and after countless visits to every rheumatologist and traumatologist, and usless x-rays and lab tests, an Internist helped me by prescribing MRIs in knees and cervicals as I begged him to do it.
And so, my knees are severly injured with partial broken cruciate ligaments in both knees and th neck is really damaged too. Different injuries, degenerative. I am 49 and it's been going on for... 30 years progressively? I was 19 and got very ill when playing sports (I loved them). Plus all the constant body pains and weird symptoms of all kind that you al lknow well.
But why didn't they start by asking for an MRI when I first went with this awful pain in July last summer? It is a private insurance, not the social security.
So, does anyone know why the ligaments can be broken in both knees when I have barely left my sofa and bed in the last 20 years and definetely have not played football?
I used to play basketball and soccer when young and remember awful knee to knee crashes and falls, so this could be chronic since then, but 30 years is way too long.
What degenerative diseases destroying the ligaments are there? Anyone knows?
Regards.
