    Hello GrandmaS. I think you posted originally on the 'News' forum and a couple of the Moderators gave some useful links. Have you managed to find it?

    Thanks for the heads-up Stickywicket on post in the wrong forum. I have now moved the thread to Living With Arthritis, leaving a link in place.

    The thread can now be found here:

    Hello GrandmaS and weocme to the forum
    My husband has a Arthroscopy quite a few years ago now ,he was asleep, but it was one of the anesthetics that you come round from quickly, so he was pleased it was OA and they washed out all the bits and pieces..he was home with in a few hours..and had good results for a few years ..hope this helps..
    Love
