Knee issues (again)

Well, I'm going on day four of my knee being what I refer to as "puffy and swollen." Look back through my archives and you'll find that I blogged about the EXACT same thing last year about this time. I put in a request for my medical records from the Rheumatologist that I see. I'd like to see specifically what tests have been run on me, versus the watered down version that sometimes Dr.'s give me because I'm a lay-person and not a medical person. I feel like this is the only way that I can REALLY take control of my knee issue and figure out what's going on here. I figure since I am baffling the Docs it's time to take this thing into my own hands and get to the bottom of it. I was hoping that with my weight loss I would be done with all this, but it looks like I'm not.

That's kind of a weird coincidence isn't it? Wouldn't the doctors be interested in that?

You would think so. They never seem interested though!!!!! I'm hoping that I will be able to get some answers by getting a second opinion somewhere else!!!
