Thank you for the recommedations.  I'm going to check these guys out.  

MM - I think you are right.  I have  friend in NJ that had her knee replaced.  She had nothing but problems, got no action from her original surgeon, and then got 2 2nd opinions where they either sent her back to PT or verbally patted her on the head.  She finally went into NYC, found a surgeon and found out that she actually had an artificial knee that was too large.  She had a revision surgery on Feb 2nd, and she said she has so much less pain this time around.  I have known women that had plastic surgery and ended up at revisionist plastic surgeon to undo what had been done.  

I chose the Dr. I did, because 1/ he did my husband's knees and 2/he is one of the top orthopedic surgeon's in the country and operates on all those high priced athetes.  It never occurred to me that I would have a problem, but I am where I am.  I'm really ticked off about being sent to PT to "strengthen my muscles" when in fact, I am 99% sure it is scar tissue.  His unwillingness to consider that it might be something more than "weak muscles" has just frosted me.
