    Hi All,

    I am a 49 year old female, when I was younger I tripped and fell inuring my knee. Over the years I have suffered pain in my knee but now I am unable to walk as I experience spasms and unable to straighten my leg. I have been to my local doctor/ Physiotherapist, also have been admitted to Connolly hospital where I have gotten x-rays/MRI along with keyhole surgery in an attempt to straighten the knee, none of which were successful. I have been given medication for the spasms. The orthopedic surgeon at Connolly hospital said they could do no more and have transferred me to the neurologist which is in October. I am wondering is there any other treatment options available either here or abroad as I feel I am getting no where, don't have medical insurance but would be able to pay for treatment.

    Thank You.

    If you have exhausted all options, perhaps I should mention adjusting your diet and introducing regular fasting days will give you some improvements.

    Please research into fasting and Osteoarthritis and certainly the diet.
