My knee is still slowly healing.  I still have some pain but the stretching I do keeps it in check.  I biked 7 miles on a stationary tonight.  I felt my knee a bit but not that bad. 

In 2 weeks I have another needling on my knee.  I think the last one helped, but I don't know.  My Dr. thinks I will need several to get my knee fully back to normal.  Wish me luck.

KM - what is a needling? I haven't checked your blog for a while. Are you still having knee issues from more than a year ago?

I am still having pain in my knee. The needling is and ultra sound guided needle that pokes a ton of holes in my patella tendon to make it bleed. There is not much blood supply to the tendon, so by poking holes in it hopefully the tendon will repair it self. If you look up microprofution or prolotherapy you can find more info.
