I will eventually have to have knee surgery on both kness....so freaking out.. to that it not the worst part the worst part is the doc said no excessive walking or exercise I have to stop the activity for now..OMG!!!!!

I've got the same thing with the knee cap.  Are you doing PT?  You essentially need to get the muscles in the knee streghtened so the knee cap stays where it's supposed to.  Am I diligent to it?  Nope.  Once the flare up settles down, you'll be good to go, just in moderation -- that's the hardest for me.  No more walking 6-7 days per week.  I just had synvisc shot into that knee to help with the arthritis -- jury's still out on whether it will offer relief, but I'm cautiously optomistic.
