osteoarthritis
"I have had a knee problem for almost a year now - going through regular fluid build up. Went through drainage, cortisone shots, then synvisc - knee keeps swelling. Finally they did MRI and ordered orthoscopic surgery. The doctor who will be doing the surgery put me on Mobic to reduce swelling and the knee has felt the best it has felt in almost a year. Ironic - this is two weeks before surgery. I have been on other anti-inflammatories before and this one worked."
