Osteoarthritis
"This is my third round of orthovisc. My great fear was the pain during the injections as well as after. I got the first round last Monday. The first knee was killer!  For the other knee she used lidocaine type medicine and then the orthovisc. Easy peazy!!!!!  I am eager to get back on my bike and ride until winter gives me no choice but to stay indoors. I am grateful for orthovisc. I&#039;ve had 3 years of success - although I do NOT recommend waiting a year between treatments. It was a bad decision for me."
