Hi, I'm 43 with brittle bones disease (osteogenesis imperfecta) . I had a total knee replacement done in may 2016 at the royal orthopaedic hospital at stanmore. My knee has given way twice in the last week and now I have severe pain from just below my knee right down my shin to my ankle. walking is unbearable. please any advice would be great. I will be calling stanmore hospital tomorrow for advice . Thank you

Thank you. I will be calling them at 9. I'm really hoping it's nothing too serious. I know in my heart that this much pain isn't normal.

Hi ya. I will calling them at 9 this morning, I can't go straight as it's there isn't a A&E department there as its a specialists orthopaedic hospital. Thank you so much for the reply.
