Osteoarthritis
"For anyone considering SYNVISC, I&#039;d like to share that I&#039;ve had both knees done twice &amp; will continue to have the injections. Some background: I&#039;m 59 yrs old, 5&#039;6&quot;, approx 175lbs. The first time I had SYNVISC injects. (in both knees), it took about 5 weeks to experience the full benefits, but once it &quot;kicked in,&quot; there was ZERO pain &amp; complete fluid mobility! For almost a year, my knees felt &quot;brand new!&quot;  
I&#039;ve recently had a second set of injections (both knees) and although there has been a bit more to pain in the recovery, each day there is definite improvement. 
I must caution anyone who gets these injections not to panic if there is noticable pain initially after the injections. Take it easy. It gets better!"
