Furthermore, the new 986 area code will be dispersed in what is called a geographic overlay. This means all new telephone numbers will get the 986 area code, and all existing Idaho phone numbers get to keep their 208 area code. (Whew!)
ORTHOVISC is given as an injection into your knee joint (administered by a health professional) once a week for three or four consecutive weeks. After three injections, studies have shown pain relief that lasts for up to six months. 3 Although individual results vary, some people feel relief after the first injection.
I'm 54 and been getting synvisc 1 shots once a yr. for the past 5 yrs. with very good results. It was like a miracle to me because it would last for 8 months to a yr. before pain in my right knee would return. I just had a synvisc one injection last week and was surprised because I developed severe pain and hardly can function with knee.
