    Over the past two weeks I've suddenly developed two very painful knees
    without having had any accidents, twisting, etc.

    I'm wondering if this might be related to the use of insulin. I have
    been fighting tendon problems all over my body all year, but they have
    calmed down. My bgs have been very good all this time.

    The pain in my one knee came out of nowhere, limits my ability to walk,
    and the knee is making clicking sounds, too. I have never had a single
    bit of knee pain before in my life and no knee injuries.

    I'm not even sure which kind of doctor to see for this. When I had
    problems in my foot two years ago I went to a rheumatologist who said,
    "At your age, of course you have arthritis." Then he sent me for an
    x-ray that showed no arthritis. At that point he shrugged and said,
    "Don't know what it is" and sent me for a cortisone treatment that
    messed up my bgs and did nothing for the foot. I don't want to repeat
    that experience!
    Any ideas, folks?

    Start by informing your primary doctor about your new symptoms.

    If you have been low-carbing, you may be at higher risk for gout.

    Prayerfully in Christ's amazing love,

    Her primary doctor has so far failed to do anything useful for her,
    what the hell do you think he's gonna do for her in the future?

    Her primary doctor apparently does not know about the knee pains.

    See **emphasis** above.

    Name-calling remains a tell for those with satan's mark emblazoned
    across their foreheads.

    To understand this, simply surf the link under my name.

    Will pray for your poor enslaved soul, dear neighbor.

    Sounds like more tendon problems to me. You can get tendon problems in the
    knee from doing nothing more than walking around.

    Make sure you take magnesium chloride (not magnesium oxide- body doesn't
    absorb it) supplements- they can help with muscle and tendon problems and
    diabetics are prone to low magesium.

    I don't see in the OP's message anything about seeing her PCP about the knee
    pain. So why would you make a comment like you did at the end of this
    message and call someone a moron..
