"Synvisc-One is an injection that supplements the fluid in your knee to help lubricate and cushion the joint, and can provide up to six months of osteoarthritis knee ."
2 year of getting the shot every 6 to 8 months and it's a miracle in my case. Knee is like new, no pain and total mobility.
You should talk to your doc about it. It doesn't work quite as well for everyone but it did for me.

Good to hear it's working for you, happy knees
