I am in the Hospital now for the 2nd time since receiving synvisc in both knees. I had a severe reaction and had so much pain. The kind of pain that made me shake and hyperventilate. My knee had fusion (water) and swelling. The first day was got to touch and I had a slight fever. They gave me mess and that went away. Not shure what they gave me at the time. I was sent home although I could hardly stand at all and had to buy a potable potty. Which I couldn't stand to use and went through a night from hell as the knees got worse and I was so scared because I only had a 9 year old at home to help me. I came back to the Hospitol and with only a toridol injection and some blood work said there's nothing wrong with me and was sending me home. I was still screaming In pain 2 hours later at this point. I swore they better figure it out or else. And here I sit. I'm in slight pain still. They've been giving me iv steroids. That seems to help. Not sure what the future holds but I'm scared and I can't walk now.
