How do you look after your knees?
I know, bend your back instead of your knees when you pick something heavy up.

OK. If you're paying privately then you can take plenty of shortcuts as you don't need to mess around going through insurance hoops. I'd still recommend going to a good physio first, they'll know the best surgeons anyway and you can build a working relationship for post-surgery.Originally posted by SimonMac View Post
Your GP is probably useless for getting a private surgeon, at best they can do a referral letter for you if you give them the name!
If you're uncomfortable with anything the surgeon is saying then question it, if he/she is evasive or arrogant then find another, it's your money.Comment

Pay for it privately.Originally posted by SimonMac View Post
I had private healthcare for about 3 years (£180 a month for the family). The two times I tried to claim for something they were having none of it.
So I cancelled it. Then I got a horrible lump on the back of my neck which grew to the size of a golfball and giving me dreadful neckache. I went to the NHS and they said 'Sorry, that's cosmetic'. So I rang around a few private hospitals and negotiated a price of about £500 to go it. Minor op, few hours later they'd cut it out and it was thrown it away. I was back the next day without an issue. In addition, that lump they threw away also did well, it eventually became a contractor and moved to a Fantasy Island.What happens in General, stays in General.You know what they say about assumptions!Comment

I've told you before MF, that unsightly fat lump on top of your neck is called your head.Originally posted by MarillionFan View Post
It is cosmetic, but no insurance company has enough funds to deal with it.
