[QUOTE="zerosprk, post: 2669182, member: 92333"] I have essentially no cartilage in my left knee along with a complex tear of the meniscus. For the last couple of years I've worn an articulated "unloader" brace on my left knee whenever I'm carrying a pack in the mountains or skiing. I live in northern New Mexico so elk hunting is between 9 and 11 thousand feet and I'm a double-black diamond skier. I get a shot of Monovisc in that knee periodically as well. That said, I can't recommend the brace enough. It took a Rx from my orthopod and $200 on my part with my insurance picking up the rest. Not cheap but man does it work! [/QUOTE]
