    I just applied for a job that I would have never even tried for. It has little to do with either of my uni degrees, but the confidence I feel I have when job hunting now has changed my prospects somewhat!

    Amazing what a piece of paper (and years of long hard study) can do.

    Here's hoping I get it

    its caled Synvisc, and its about 400 bux an injection, it is an artificial material similar to the fluid inside the cartlidge which since i have no cartlidge it coats the bones and protects them as well as reducuing the pain from arthitis and the various other damage i have down there, it is also used alot in elderly Arthirtis sufferers

    its a test as i am one of the first in the country/world to try it with the amount of damage and ACL Reco graft in the knee

    should last about 10-12 months in theory and will reduce the amount of surgery needed.

    Yeah I was covered by workers comp as well. Apparently I need another procedure in a year or so because of the same problem as you.
