Report Covid-19 Resurgence in Thailand: Over 8,000 Cases Reported in a Week
Wife and I contracted Influenza A/H1N1 3 weeks ago. We had the flu shot a few months earlier. So I looked up some medical journals. According to one study U of Arizona, it said a controlled study found that the flu shot was 60-70% affective for most age groups and most of the subsets of Flu A. However, it also discovered that it provided virtually no protection against A/H1N1 in the 50 - 64 age group. What?? -

I have arthritis
You used ChatGPT? I tried it and got a much more thorough response. CHATGPT: Thanks for sharing that—I'll give you a careful, grounded response based on what you're describing. You mentioned: Knee weakness after rest (like sitting or sleeping) No pain "Clicking" brings the knee back to normal Duration: around a year X-ray showed signs of arthritis Here's a breakdown of what might be going on: 1. Osteoarthritis (OA) OA can show on X-rays even if you don’t have much or any pain, especially in early or mild cases. Weakness and stiffness after periods of inactivity (called gelling) is actually very typical in OA. A "click" sensation that improves the feeling might just be normal joint mechanics—ligaments, tendons, or menisci moving back into place. 2. Patellofemoral Syndrome or Maltracking Your kneecap might not be gliding smoothly over the femur. This can cause a sense of instability or weakness, especially after sitting with knees bent (“theater sign”). Clicking is common here too. 3. Quadriceps Weakness or Deconditioning If you were inactive for a year, your quad muscles may have weakened, which directly affects knee stability. Weakness can make it feel like your knee “gives” or needs to "snap" into place. 4. Meniscus or Ligament Issues (less likely without pain) Tears in these structures typically cause pain, swelling, or locking, but mild or chronic tears might just cause clicking or instability. What you might consider doing next: Ask for a physical therapy referral – Strengthening your quads and glutes can often dramatically improve symptoms. An MRI – If the clicking feels more like a catch or if the instability worsens, an MRI could check soft tissues more closely than an X-ray. Track symptoms – Note if the "click" always helps, if swelling appears, or if it starts to hurt—this could guide diagnosis further. Would you like a simple exercise guide to start rebuilding knee support safely?
