Hi @Blueskyday68,

I've found a couple of older posts on the community which may help you with this:

https://community.versusarthritis.org/discussion/55585/pain-behind-knee-and-knee-giving-way

https://community.versusarthritis.org/discussion/54788/will-knee-exercises-help-with-ostoarthus-flair-ups-and-knee-locking-and-knees-giving-way

https://community.versusarthritis.org/discussion/54137/cant-stop-thinking-about-when-my-knees-will-give-way

As you can see, the general consensus is that exercise if done regularly will help in the long run, so seeing a physio or doing some of the exercises suggested by Versus Arthritis for your knees would help. Also looking into getting a knee brace or other walking aids - like a stick or walker - would help you feel more confident.

Best of luck!
