Natural Solutions For Chronic Knee Pain

June 26, 2009
Dear Bill,
It is always so inspiring for me to read your brief recommendations or notes. I wrote some time ago to thank you but the fact that I am in South Africa, makes it impossible to tend any of your presentations. However, just by reading your notes, and to feel that there is someone out there that understands, makes it a little better.
I injured my knee 3 years ago. Jan 2009 I eventually (!) had an operation - the meniscus looked like a sea anemone – completely torn. They cut all out apart from small piece on each side so that the bones do not touch each other. However, I still suffer severe swelling & pain. My left leg’s muscles now started deforming due to the excess load it has to carry. It is very painful. One just gets a little despondent if you battle for so long. I realize I need to be grateful that I at least have a leg to pain!
I will be paying medical bill for the next 3 years & still cannot walk. I will have to obtain physiotherapy to help the left leg. And go back for medical attention to my knee. But your correspondence helps me to keep my emotions intact. Which– from time to time – is worse than the actual pain.
Thank you again,

Nicolet Goosen, South Africa
