Who has had experience with this problem?

To clarify: this condition is not related to my WLS. Don't want pre-ops to get scared. I had a consult with an ortho doctor yesterday and he told me I have osteoarthritis in both knees and within 2-5 years I wouls HAVE to have at least a partial knee replacement. Now I have had knee pain for years and was always told...if you lose weight the pain will go away. Well I did and it didn't. The doc said I was a little on the young side for this, that they don't usually operate on those under 55-65 unless its an extreme case. I guess injections are in my near future until surgery. I was wondering what some other's exerience might be in dealing with this condition. P.S. I tried to post this question yesterday but it didn't seem to go through, if it double-posts..sorry. Thanks!
