I've learned something over the last few years - there are some very bright, pragmatic and thoughtful souls on retirement sites. I am unashamed to say I've used them as my personal think tank. I am a bit older (61) then most of my fiends and much older then most colleagues. So none of them have any real health issues so not much help there...
Facts
1) just went though the second round of shots for my knees.. It didn't work
2) I avoid the stairs, walking to restaurants at lunch, I search out the handicap stalls ...
mostly it aches all the time - it is definitely affecting my life. Lying on my bed writing this - it is a steady ache - standing for my shower stirred it up.
3) I called the doc and have an appointment Tuesday to discuss next steps.
4) the right knee has its days too but usually it is the left that is leading the charge..
Pretty sure where this is going... The question is one or both? Several people have suggested do both. "Most people won't do the second after that first one..."
