Hello there. this is mostly a vent so please skip if you're not in a good headspace. :)) - So the doctors have no idea whats wrong with me, so I can't give any information as far as that. But for the past 3-5 years my Right knee has been giving me a world of trouble. And it keeps getting worse. it feels like there is a small hole where my kneecap should be, and I can't walk on with without extreme pain and it giving out of me, it just can't support my weight anymore. I've been in a wheelchair for a few months and it just keeps taking more and more energy to do things. I was doing the dishes tonight and by the time I was done (It took about 1hour and 30minutes) I was shaking really badly and I was exhausted. I have to stand on my left leg to reach the sink so I know that's part of my issues, but it's just so exhausting and I have no idea why. I feel really bad about it, and the doctors aren't helping. I've have 3 doctors tell me I need knee surgery and then they turn around and tell me I'm "too young" and I'm just not sure what to tell them anymore. I guess I'm asking for two things. 1.) Why does my energy run so low so quickly. 2.) How do I get my doctors to listen.. Any help or advice is appreciated. Thank you for listening. :))
