To anyone with 'knee' problems please ask them to look at your hips as well. Over a period of a couple of years the pain in my knee got so bad that by the end I couldn't leave the house. Everyone kept examining the knee and not finding anything. Eventually a full MRI revealed my right hip had completely crumbled.
